So, maybe I reformulate my question: what's the easiest board to:program easy instructions
have output to the motor
have option to power off the motor via the board
Any Arduino board will do that.
But you cannot connect a high-power device like a motor directly to an Arduino. You need a h-bridge or motor-driver-board in between the Arduino and the motor.
what accessories do I need to connect the arduino to my computer in order to program it?
A USB cable - and the Arduino IDE (programming software)
