It's a great idea to get your software all set up and loaded onto your board right away, to make testing your connections easier later on.
To get the code running you'll need:
- Arduino IDE (1.8 or newer preferred)
- Adafruit Board support (for Flora, Circuit Playground or Gemma M0)
- FastLED Library
It's also helpful to install the Adafruit NeoPixel library, for testing purposes or in case FastLED is not working. (Use Sketch→Include Library→Manage Libraries…
and search for Adafruit NeoPixel)
1. Arduino IDE
If you’re not using a recent version of the Arduino IDE (1.8.3 or newer), this would be a good time to upgrade. If this is your first time using Arduino, head over to this guide to get it installed. It's free and fairly simple to get set up.
2. Board Support
You'll need to tell the Arduino IDE which board you're using. This takes just a few minutes of setup, and you'll only need to do it once.
3. FastLED Library
This project uses the FastLED library, which provides high-performance math and color functions for NeoPixel projects. You'll need to download and install this manually:
Installing Arduino libraries is a frequent stumbling block, but we have a guide explaining the procedure.
Upload the Code
Plug your microcontroller into your computer with a USB cable. In the Arduino IDE, go to Tools > Boards and select the name of the board. Then go to Tools > Port and select the board there too. (If it's not showing up there, be sure your microcontroller is plugged into your computer via USB)
This code was written by Mark Kriegsman. There are a few simple variables you can change: brightness of the LEDs and how quickly the lights shift between palettes. I'll get more into how to add and configure your own color palettes later on.
