Welcome to Arduino!

Before you start controlling the world around you,


you'll need to set up the software to program your board.

The Arduino Software (IDE) allows you to write programs and upload
them to your board. In the Arduino Software page you will find two
options:

1. If you have a reliable Internet connection, you should use


the online IDE (Arduino Web Editor). It will allow you to save
your sketches in the cloud, having them available from any
device and backed up. You will always have the most up-to-date
version of the IDE without the need to install updates or
community generated libraries.

2. If you would rather work offline, you should use the latest
version of the desktop IDE.

Code online on the Arduino Web Editor

To use the online IDE simply follow these instructions. Remember that


boards work out-of-the-box on the Web Editor, you only need to install
Arduino Create Agent to get started.

Install the Arduino Desktop IDE

To get step-by-step instructions select one of the following link


accordingly to your operating system.

 Windows

 Mac OS

 Linux

 Portable IDE (Windows and Linux)

 ChromeOS (Arduino Create App) in the Chrome Web Store

Choose your board in the list here on the right to learn how to get
started with it and how to use it on the Desktop IDE.

Learn Arduino

 Read an introduction on what is Arduino and why you'd want to


use it.
 What is the Arduino Software (IDE) and how do I change the
default language?

 Libraries: Using and installing Arduino Libraries.

 Cores: Need to add a new board to your Arduino Software?


Install the relate core and manage it.

 Troubleshooting: Advice on what to do if things don't work.

For a complete list of Guides visit the Foundations section, where you


will find in-depth knowledge about the principles and techniques behind
the Arduino platform.

Making the Arduino StarterKit projects and reading the book 'Getting


Started with Arduino' are great ways to start learning and tinkering
with coding and electronics.
