Step 3 Add Resistors

We need to protect each colour (Red, Green, and Blue) with a
resistor.

Drag three 220-ohm resistors from the components section onto
the breadboard.

Connect one resistor to the red leg of the LED.
Connect one resistor to the green leg of the LED.

Connect one resistor to the blue leg of the LED.

This step ensures that too much electricity will not flow through the LED,
preventing it from getting damaged.
