Step 2: Verify IDE

*Verifying hardware support package


  • The Microduino IDE has an integrated hardware support package for its variety of cores;
    • This package allows Microduino hardware to be displayed in the “Board” menu
    • Like the official Arduino hardware, you can download code online and reprogram the bootloader
