1 # Adafruit Arduino Boards 2 3 Configuration and other support files to use Adafruit's boards like Trinket, 4 Pro Trinket, Gemma, Flora, and more with the Arduino IDE. This is provided as 5 a reference for modifying the Arduino IDE to support Adafruit's boards. If you 6 just want to program one of Adafruit's boards you probably want one of the 7 preconfigured Arduino IDEs that Adafruit provides--see the learn system guide for 8 your board for more details! 9 10 NOTE: If you want to setup the Arduino IDE to work with these boards you probably 11 want to follow this guide that shows an easy method using the board manager: 12 https://learn.adafruit.com/add-boards-arduino-v164/overview This repository is 13 only for manually configuring Arduino to work with Adafruit's AVR boards (and for 14 building new packages for the board manager). 15 16 These files are only compatible with the 1.6.x series of Arduino IDE and NOT the 17 earlier 1.0.x series. The contents of this repository should be cloned/copied 18 into an Arduino/hardware/adafruit/avr folder. 19 20 NOTE: Arduino IDE version 1.6.2 has a bug with supporting external cores and 21 DOES NOT work with these files. Use Arduino 1.6.3+, or an earlier version like 22 1.6.1.
