Before You Start
If this is your first foray into the world of arduino-based microcontrollers, you'll need to install some software first. Head over to the Circuit Playground Lesson 0 guide for detailed installation and setup instructions.
You'll only need to do all this once, so be a little patient if it seems like a lot!
FastLED Library
You will also need to install the FastLED library in Arduino (Sketch > Include Library > Manage Libraries...)
One other note: if you're using FastLED with Circuit Playground, be sure to #include the Circuit Playground library FIRST and the FastLED library second, or you may run into problems.
Upload Code
Once you've got everything installed and your computer can talk to the Circuit Playground, it's time to upload the code.
Plug your Circuit Playground into your computer and select the Circuit Plaground under Tools > Boards. Then select the Circuit Playground as the Port.
Copy and paste this code into a new Arduino window and click "upload".
