Getting started with the Arduino/Genuino
MKR1000
MKR1000 board has been designed to offer a practical and cost effective solution for makers seeking to add
Wi-Fi connectivity to their projects with minimal previous experience in networking. Learn how to set up the
programming environment and get the hardware up and running, ready for your projects, in minutes.
The MKR1000 is programmed using the Arduino Software (IDE) (//www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software), our
Integrated Development Environment common to all our boards and running both online
(https://create.arduino.cc/editor) and offline. For more information on how to get started with the Arduino
Software visit the Getting Started page (//www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/HomePage).
