Arduino preparations
1. ArduinoIDE installation
arduino community's own IDE you can either install package downloaded from the Internet their own, and then install their own (slightly more complicated a little bit, but you can choose the installation path), you can also download and install directly from Microsoft's application store (simple, but can not choose to install path).
FIG upper and lower control notes, and its own system can be installed:
- Download and install the windows applied to the IDE, is mounted a first, a need to install after downloading. The second is compressed, decompressed after downloading can be applied.
- If you are win8 or win10 can download and install directly from Microsoft's own application store, very simple, but as said at the beginning that you can not customize the installation path. [If you do not care to install the Road King, then this is the best choice, but to me this obsessive-compulsive disorder is simply to kill me]
- This is the installation package for MacOS
- It is suitable for installation under Linux
The installation process requires only been the next step, the next step on it. No tricks and caveats.
2. Online IDE
In addition to download and install locally, the community also provides a compilation of the online web version. [Web of personal opinion would be the direction of the vast majority of software development], but obviously there web version, no installation will be able to use you asked me why I would also like to install ? a locally because: ....
Understand? But I'll still links on this place, who are interested can go to find out.
3. CH340 driver installation
If you are using the original board then you can skip this step if using other manufacturers board, perhaps you need to install a driver CH340. [If you've used before, then the microcontroller should know why]
There's nothing to install on the CH340 can say a place, go online to download and install it, very simple.
