Your first circuit diagram

Through the course of this tutorial, we’ll try to replicate the current shunt animation shown below (fans of CircuiTikZ may recognise this example!)

We’ll start with just building the final circuit statically in the first four sections, and then we’ll animate it in the final section. Well, without further ado, let’s get started! If you want to jump to a particular point, use the contents below, but otherwise, move on to adding components.
