Before you begin you will need some software. Here's what we're using:

Arduino IDE

As of this writing, 1.6.7 is the latest so we're using that. We also installed the Arduino SAMD support and/or Adafruit SAMD support (for Feather M0)

Make sure you also have drivers set up for the board you're using, and get a sketch working and uploaded to the board. That means you have the IDE and package set up, which is something you want done before you continue

J-Link Software

If you're using a J-Link, install all software and drivers for it and run the J-Link commander to make sure you update the firmware, new firmware is constantly being released so best to update your 'Link!

Atmel Studio 7

Here's where the Mac and Linux people will be sad. This is the IDE software that can do step&memory debugging and its only for Windows. Also you have to make an account on Atmel's site, download it from here
