Install the Chrome app

  1. Go to the Chrome web store page.
  2. Click Add to Chrome.
  3. Click Add app to confirm.
  4. Click Launch app to start the Web Editor or go to create.arduino.cc/editor.

Use the Web Editor

  1. Go to create.arduino.cc/editor.

  2. If you're not signed into an Arduino account, you will be asked to do so.

  3. Connect a compatible board to a USB port on your computer.

  4. Select your board in the Boards Dropdown.

    The Boards Dropdown in the Web Editor.

  5. Start writing a new sketch in the editor, or use a sketch from the Examples sidebar.

Please note: You can also download a BETA version of Arduino Cloud Editor, a new application for Chromebook, which is available for free on the Google Store. Right now, this application has more limited features than the current ChromeApp. However, it uses the new Progressive Web Application development framework from ChromeOS, which will be the recommended platform going forward. Your feedback on this BETA version would be greatly appreciated, as it will help us improve the app and continue to support Chromebook users in the future.
