Grammar & spelling.
Dec 20, 2015 at 16:06 comment added Gerben Sorry, I meant to say 'shields' not 'shield'. A lot of times different shields use the same pins, leading to problems. This forum is full of those cases. As to which connection on the breakout, goes to which pin on the arduino; sometimes it doesn't matter which arduino pin. Sometimes it has to be a specific pin (e.g. SPI or I2C pins). That's the advantage of shield. They've already done this for you. You however miss the flexibility using different pins, when required.
Dec 19, 2015 at 15:23 comment added Gabriele Giordano "tacking shield will lead to problems a lot of time" Why? "Use regular breakouts and wire them yourself to the appropriate arduino pins." I'm totally new in this field and what I know at the moment is that I have to see which kind of wire goes in which kind of holes. These things are typically written with letter and numbers (on the board), right?

Dec 18, 2015 at 19:55 comment added Gerben Shield are just for lazy people :-). Also, stacking shield will lead to problems a lot of time. Use regular breakouts and wire them yourself to the appropriate arduino pins. You can move them around, till you have the best fit for your enclosure.
