Getting Started with Arduino

What you will learn

Identify a microcontroller board, install the official Arduino IDE, select the correct board and port, and upload the standard Blink example.

You will need

  • Arduino-compatible development board
  • Data-capable USB cable
  • Computer with the Arduino IDE

Steps

  1. Install the official Arduino IDE appropriate for your operating system.
  2. Connect the board with a USB data cable.
  3. Select the appropriate board model and serial port in the IDE.
  4. Open File → Examples → 01.Basics → Blink.
  5. Click Upload and wait for completion.
  6. Observe the built-in LED blinking.

Troubleshooting

Try a different data cable or port if the board cannot be detected; verify the selected board package and permissions. Disconnect power before rewiring external circuits.
