It’s not necessarily needed to restart in order to import the library into your code, but if you want to get access to the examples you’ll have to do it. What I would recommend is that you first restart the Arduino IDE.

Great, you’ve successfully installed an Arduino library from GitHub! Restart the Arduino IDE Just move or copy/paste the extracted library into the Arduino “libraries” folder.Īnd that’s it, the library is installed! Use the Arduino library Now that you’ve done the 2 previous steps, things are super easy. You should be able to reach this file by just going to Arduino-IRremote-3.6.1 > README.md. In this case, make sure you don’t use the additional folder. For example, to reach the “README.md” file, you could end up going to Arduino-IRremote-3.6.1 > Arduino-IRremote-3.6.1 > README.md. Note: when you extract on Windows, it might create an additional folder on top of the folder you’ve extracted. With the IRremote library, I get a folder named “Arduino-IRremote-3.6.1”, because I’ve downloaded the version with the 3.6.1 tag. Now, you will get one folder, which actually contains the library you want to install.

So, extract the library from the zip file.

If you try to use the zip file directly it won’t work. The number one mistake when installing an Arduino library is to forget to extract it. This step is super basic but also super important. Now let’s come back to the zip file we’ve just downloaded. You will find a “readme.txt” file, and also some other folders if you ever installed other Arduino libraries before.Īnd by just finding this folder, you’ve already solved half of the problem. What you will also see is a folder named “libraries”.

If you’ve already created some Arduino programs you will find them here. Now, open a file manager and go to this folder.

Here you can find where your Arduino programs (named “sketched”) are saved. To find this folder, open the Arduino IDE, and go to File > Preferences.

When you install the Arduino IDE, there is actually a specific folder created just for that. Let’s start to find out where you need to install the library. Installing an Arduino library is a super easy process: you just have to extract the zip file and put the library inside the correct folder on your computer. Now that you have downloaded the zip file for the library, let’s install it. In this case, from the main page of the library, select a branch (here we keep “master” which is the main branch).

You might also want to download the library with the very last changes (commits) – not necessary a tagged version. You may have more recent versions available.Ĭlick on the “zip” button on the selected version to download it as an archive. Note: the versions you see on the screenshot above are the ones I got when writing the tutorial. Now, you can choose whichever version you want to download – either the latest on the top, or any previous one. This will bring you to all the possible tagged version for the library. Download a specific version of the library…Īfter you’ve found the library on GitHub, click on “tags”. You can also go on GitHub first and type the library name on the search bar. In this case, let’s search for “IRremote github”, which leads us to the GitHub page for the library. The easiest way to find the library is simply to search for “name of the library + github” on Google. It can be installed directly from the Arduino IDE, but here of course we’ll do it the GitHub way. This library allows you to read data from an IR remote controller with Arduino. In this tutorial I will choose the IRremote library as an example. To install an Arduino library from GitHub, you first have to download it.
