To use the [Arduino UNO R3](/hardware/uno-rev3/) board, you will need the Arduino AVR Board Package, which comes pre-installed with the IDE.
9+
10+
You will need a version of the Arduino IDE, which you can download from the [Arduino Software page](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software). In this guide, we will use the latest version of the IDE 2.
11+
12+
## Software & Hardware Needed
13+
14+
- [Arduino UNO R3](https://store.arduino.cc/products/arduino-uno-rev3)
15+
- [Arduino IDE](/software/ide-v2)
16+
17+
***You can also use the [Cloud Editor](https://create.arduino.cc/editor) which comes with all Arduino boards pre-installed.***
18+
19+
## Download & Install IDE
20+
21+
1. First, we need to download the Arduino IDE, which can be done from the [Arduino Software page](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software/).
22+
2. Install the Arduino IDE on your local machine.
23+
3. Open the Arduino IDE.

27+
## Board Package
28+
29+
The [Arduino Core for AVR devices](https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-avr) comes pre-installed with the IDE, so no additional installation is necessary to get started. To use a different version than the latest, open the "Board Manager" from the left-hand menu. Search for AVR and install the version you want to use.
30+
31+

32+
33+
You should now be able to select your board in the board selector. You will need to have your board connected to your computer via the USB-B connector at this point.
34+

36+
37+
Congratulations, your board is now ready to be used via the Arduino IDE.
38+
39+
## Compile & Upload Sketches
40+
41+
To compile and upload sketches, you can use the:
42+
- **Checkmark** for compiling code.
43+
- **Right arrow** to upload code.
44+
45+
There are several examples available for the UNO R3 board, which can be accessed directly in the IDE, through **File > Examples**. These examples can be used directly without external libraries.
46+

## Summary
50+
51+
In this tutorial we prepared the Arduino UNO R3 to be used with the Arduino IDE.
52+
53+
For any issues regarding the Arduino AVR board package, please refer to the [Arduino Core for AVR devices](https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-avr).
