**But good sir, what is electricity?**
This Substack focuses on creating an accessible curriculum for hobby electronics, aiming to bridge the gap between overly simplistic explanations and complex academic texts. The goal is to provide a deeper understanding of electronics for those who want more than basic analogies but lack a strong background in advanced physics or mathematics. The author intends to explore fundamental concepts in a clear and understandable manner.
The current post addresses a core question: What is electricity and why do some materials conduct it better than others? The explanation begins with the basic atomic structure, highlighting the role of electrons and their interaction with atomic nuclei. Further articles will delve into more advanced topics like circuit concepts, semiconductors, signal amplification, and radio transmission, building upon this fundamental understanding of electricity and conductivity.
