Introduce Arduino IDE

The Arduino IDE is an open-source cross-platform application written in Java that is used to write and upload programs to Arduino compatible boards. It provides a software library and core functions for editing, compiling, and debugging code as well as uploading compiled code as hexadecimal to the board. The IDE contains editors for writing code in C and C++ along with a compiler that converts the code into an executable program to upload to the board.

ARDUINO IDE

The Arduino integrated development environment (IDE) is a cross-platform application


(for Windows, macOS, Linux) that is written in the programming language Java. It is used to write
and upload programs to Arduino compatible boards, but also, with the help of 3rd party cores,
other vendor development boards.
The source code for the IDE is released under the GNU General Public License, version 2. The
Arduino IDE supports the languages C and C++ using special rules of code structuring.[4] The
Arduino IDE supplies a software library from the Wiringproject, which provides many common
input and output procedures. User-written code only requires two basic functions, for starting the
sketch and the main program loop, that are compiled and linked with a program stub main() into
an executable cyclic executive program with the GNU toolchain, also included with the IDE
distribution. The Arduino IDE employs the program avrdude to convert the executable code into
a text file in hexadecimal encoding that is loaded into the Arduino board by a loader program in
the board's firmware.

Introduce arduino IDE


 Arduino IDE is an open source software that is mainly used for writing and compiling the code
into the Arduino Module.
 It is an official Arduino software, making code compilation too easy that even a common person
with no prior technical knowledge can get their feet wet with the learning process.
 It is easily available for operating systems like MAC, Windows, Linux and runs on the Java
Platform that comes with inbuilt functions and commands that play a vital role for debugging,
editing and compiling the code in the environment.
 A range of Arduino modules available including Arduino Uno, Arduino Mega, Arduino
Leonardo, Arduino Micro and many more.
 Each of them contains a microcontroller on the board that is actually programmed and accepts
the information in the form of code.
 The main code, also known as a sketch, created on the IDE platform will ultimately generate a
Hex File which is then transferred and uploaded in the controller on the board.
 The IDE environment mainly contains two basic parts: Editor and Compiler where former is
used for writing the required code and later is used for compiling and uploading the code into
the given Arduino Module.
 This environment supports both C and C++ languages.
 If you aim to download Windows app version, make sure you have Windows 8.1 or Windows
10, as app version is not compatible with Windows 7 or older version of this operating system.

The IDE environment is mainly distributed into three sections

 Menu Bar
 Text Editor
 Output Pane
