build the list of available & installed boards.

Add the Adafruit BSP List

We will only need to add one URL to the IDE in this example, but you can add multiple URLS by separating them with

commas. Copy and paste the link below into the Additional Boards Manager URLs option in the Arduino IDE

preferences.

You should see something like this:

Click OK to save the new preference settings. Next we will look at installing boards with the Board Manager.

Add the Adafruit WICED BSP

Adding the link to the Adafruit board support package does not actually install anything, it only tells the Arduino IDE

where to find the software.

Now that you have added the appropriate URLs to the Arduino IDE preferences, you can open the Boards Manager by

navigating to the Tools->Board menu item.

Once the Board Manager opens, click on the category drop down menu on the top left hand side of the window and

select Contributed. You will then be able to select and install the boards supplied by the URLs added to the

prefrences.

Find the example named Adafruit WICED from the list and click the Install button:

If you don't see the Additional Boards Manager URLs box, make sure you downloaded the Arduino IDE from

arduino.cc! Older versions and derivatives of the IDE may not have it
