Setting up an IoT projects can be time consuming and complex especially. With the Cloud platform, you can bring your IoT project ideas to life within in four steps. Before starting with a project we recommend you to familiarize yourself with the necessary tools that you will use during your building process.
The Arduino Cloud supports a range of official and third-party boards which are handled in the **"Devices"** tab. Devices are considered to be the digital replicas of your physical boards.

The Arduino Cloud currently supports devices connected via Wi-Fi®, Ethernet, LoRaWAN® (via The Things Network), and cellular connectivity. You can check the [full list of compatible hardware here](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/360016077320-What-devices-can-be-used-with-Arduino-IoT-Cloud-).

To use a device in Arduino Cloud, you need to [create a Thing](https://app.arduino.cc/things), or associate it to an existing Thing. A Thing is the digital twin of your device, like a reference to the actual hardware used to implement them.

[Things](https://app.arduino.cc/things) are basically a representation of how your Arduino device, sensors, actuators and network is mapped and linked together.
