Is the elegoo uno the same as an arduino uno or is it modified in any way?

I've had no problems using this UNO R3 with Arduino Create for Education. I've used these with many many students using Chromebooks.

What's the catch? It seems to good to be true.

The catch is that you won't be supporting the original makers of Arduino. The Arduino makers use the money for other projects, so take a look and see if you agree with them.

The CD the came with my kit was blank. Can anyone recommend a good tutorial for a complete novice?

Download the Arduino IDE @ https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/SoftwareAnd checkout the example sketches, also the Arduino tutorials are very good. Start here: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage
