Geared as an invitation for undergraduates, beginning graduate students, we present a pedagogical introduction to one-dimensional topological phases -- in particular the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. In the process, we delve upon ideas of entanglement using the correlator method and the von-Neumann density-matrix method, geometric phase, polarization, transport signatures and the role of electron-electron interactions. Through hands-on numerical experiments, whose $\href{https://github.com/hnoend/SSH_codes}{codes}$ are shared, we try to drive home the message why a program of simulating quantum electronics with topological toy models is the store house for discovering fantastic physics ideas.
