I am new here. I liked to share with you something I am/want doing/do called Easyuino. In short, it is a library for the most common sensors and devices we can connect to Arduino RGB leds, Relays, Ultrasonic modules etc, I want it to be used by beginners in order to stimulate the experimentation of new things. I know there are a lot of libraries for this things but I wanted a single one to handle the same use/model in order to facilitate the beginners learning.
It is at the beginning of development and I liked to know if it is a good idea from the people that know more about this
I recommend you to move the library to the root of the repository. That will allow people to install by clicking the "Clone or download > Download ZIP" button on the GitHub repository and then Sketch > Include Library > Add ZIP library in the IDE. It is also required if you want to add your library to the Library Manager index.
After all, if you really want to make things easy for beginners then shouldn't your library support the easiest possible installation methods?

Indeed thank you for the suggestion I will see how to do it with my current project configuration.
I'm doing something similar for the ESP8266 - but MQTT driven...maybe we should exchange notes...
the intial version is VERY basic, I'm going to be releasing a major update soon which has a real-time web interface showing pin activity and more methods for connecting swtches, buttons, encoders, sensors etc
