Install Arduino (Mac OS X) 1. Download the Arduino IDE. 2. Navigate to the folder where you copied the Arduino IDE .zip file and double-click it to open the archive.

The official Arduino development team has this week announced that the latest Arduino IDE 2.0 has now been made available as a stable release and is now available to download.

Now, with just a simple download and typing ‘install’ into a terminal, the Arduino IDE is available on just about every single board Linux computer without having to build the IDE from source.
