> 1. A pushbutton switch for power-on and reset buttons.  I am building

Search digikey for "tactile switch smd".  They're almost always custom
footprints, but very easy to make.

> 2. A simple LED that shines upward from the board.

Search digikey for "led 0603" (or whatever size you're comfortable
with) and use the stock 0603 (or whatever) footprints.

I like weidmuller connectors but any "barrier blocks" (another digikey
search) will do.  Or pcb-mount banana sockets.
