Now that your module is successfully connected, you will need to install some software on your computer to interface with it. For this, we use Pymakr, a plugin for both Visual Studio Code or Atom IDE. Through one of the environments, we can connect to the board and talk python! Follow the link below for the installation instructions:
- [Atom](/pymakr/software/atom/)
- [Atom](/gettingstarted/software/atom/)
- [VS Code](/pymakr/software/vscode/)
- [VS Code](/gettingstarted/software/vscode/)
Once you have installed and opened the IDE, the board should automatically show up in the terminal. If not, check if any of your other plugins are in conflict.
If everything is correct, the terminal will show `>>>`.
