Uploading code with Arduino
Installation and setup
Welcome to the Nibble Arduino setup guide!
We'll use Arduino IDE to teach you how to upload code to your Nibble, so let's get started.
Installation
After you download and install Arduino IDE, you should install the Nibble board.
Here's how to do that:
- Open the Arduino IDE
- Go to File -> Preferences
- Under Additional board Manager URLs add the following URL:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CircuitMess/Arduino-Packages/master/package_circuitmess.com_esp8266_index.json - Close the preferences by clicking OK
- Open the Board Manager under Tools -> Board -> Boards Manager
- Type 'CircuitMess' in the search bar
- Click the Install button on the CircuitMess ESP8266 Boards package
Then go to Tools -> Board, and select Nibble from the dropdown menu.
Now, you should download and install the Nibble library.
After downloading the .zip file from Github, extract it to your Arduino libraries folder. Create the folder if it doesn’t exist already.
On Windows and Mac devices, it is located in Documents/Arduino/libraries/, on Linux devices it’s in /home/{user}/Arduino/libraries/
