# Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
#### Install the Arduino IDE
|
||||
#### Step 1: 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
|
||||
#### Step 2: 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 easily 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).

|
||||
#### Install HomeSpan
|
||||
#### Step 3: Install HomeSpan
|
||||
|
||||
HomeSpan is packaged as a standard Arduino IDE. To install, first download the [latest version](https://github.com/HomeSpan/HomeSpan/releases/latest) of *Source Code (zip)* to your desktop.
