#### Step 1: Connect the HC-05 module to the Arduino for configuration | ||

We will program the Arduino to send AT commands to the module to configure it via a SoftwareSerial connection. Wire the TX and RX pins of your module to your Arduino. They need wired in a crossover configuration, so from the module to the Arduino wire TX to pin 10 and RX to pin 11. | ||

Later, when running Johnny-Five code, we'll use the pins labeled TX and RX on the arduino.) |

I like the addition but it's still confusing. Might be clearer if it was more sentences?

👍 I'll merge this for now, so we get the updates, and will take another stab at this section for improving clarity.
If we're struggling for clarity & brevity here. Might be worth linking to
the J5 wiki where there is some more detail?

Let your boat be its true self!
That’s a great addition. Thanks for running through the docs again. This looks good to be merged. 👍
@ajfisher I'd be for that. Do you know where in the docs the pertinent info is? |
Mainly grammatical fixes and workshop-specific clarifications. Also expanded on General Tips in build.md.
