Arduino is umbrella term for a collection of programmable microcontrollers. It covers both a physical device and an integrated development environment (IDE) that allows you to write, review, debug and upload code to your microcontroller. The Arduino IDE supports a wide variety of microcontrollers from different manufacturers with equally varying specifications (ATMEL, ESP32, ESP8266, etc). The original Arduino project takes a bare 8 bit microcontroller and adds an USB port (+ usb-to-serial converter by FTDI), voltage regulators, input/output header pins for plug and play experience. It's schematics are open source and allowed the proliferation of many varieties and clones. It is also very easy (and cheap) to make your own 'Arduino' clone on a breadboard with a handful of components
Software
NOTE: Arduino clones need a special driver, see below.

Considerations
Clones vs Real Deal
Clones use inferior usb to serial chips, voltage regulators and non removable atmel microcontrollers. With buying an original Arduino you support the development and community (needs proof ;p).
