* HomeSpan 1.0.0 is the initial public release. It is 100% feature-complete and includes 16 very detailed example-tutorials providing step-by-step instructions on how to use HomeSpan to create your own HomeKit devices. A 10-page User Guide provides addtional details on how to configure your finished HomeKit device for use on your WiFi network, and how to pair it to HomeKit.
## Getting Started ##
# Getting Started
##### Install the Arduino IDE
#### Install the Arduino IDE
Since HomeSpan is a library designed for Arduino's Integrated Development Environment, the first step is to download and install the latest version of this IDE from the [Arduino Software page](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software). If you have experience with programming Arduino sketches, you'll find Homespan's use of the standard Arduino setup() and loop() functions, as well as the ever-present *\*.ino* file, very familiar. If you've never programmed an Arduino, you may want to begin by first reviewing [Arduino's Guide to the IDE](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Environment) (and maybe try out a few Arduino examples) before proceeding to program with HomeSpan.
##### Install the Arduino-ESP32 Core
#### Install the Arduino-ESP32 Core
The Arduino IDE comes with built-in compilers and support for a variety of Arduino boards, such as the Arduino Uno and Arduino Nano. However, the IDE does not natively support programming for the ESP32. Fortunately, the IDE allows you to download and install *cores* for other micro-controllers, including the ESP32, so they can be programming from within the Arduino environment. See the [Espressif Arduino-ESP32 GitHub page](https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32#arduino-core-for-esp32-wifi-chip) for complete instructions on how to install the Arduino-ESP32 core into the Arduino IDE using the [Arduino IDE Board Manager](https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/blob/master/docs/arduino-ide/boards_manager.md).
