Arduino devices are small, integrated circuit boards designed to run small applications and be included in various low-scale projects, such as remote-controlled cars or various sensor utilities. In order to run, they need to be programmed using Java or C++.

Create new code projects for your Arduino board

MariaMole is an integrated development environment designed to build and compile code for almost any of the available Arduino boards, as well as upload it to their memory. In order to do that, the application enables you to create entire projects to organize your code, where you can store CPP and header files. In addition, you can also switch between multiple workspaces and increase your overall productivity.The actual code is properly highlighted to emphasize variable names and various other commands, in order to make the entire project easier to read and modify in case you run into bugs or you want to improve it later. You can open as many files as you want at the same time and switch between them using the accessible tabbed interface.

Compile, build and upload the code to the board

After you finish writing and testing your code, you can build it and compile it using the built-in compiler, as well as upload it to your board. In order to do that, you need to connect the Arduino device to your computer and select the appropriate COM port from the application's interface, to be able to communicate with the board's memory.If you are new to embedded devices and you want a crash course into Arduino, you can choose to import one of the pre-made example projects delivered with the application. These cover a wide variety of subjects and topics, such as analog and digital communication, sensors, displays and various USB utilities.

In conclusion

All in all, MariaMole is a friendly development environment, with enough options to satisfy even the most experienced users. Furthermore, the multitude of example projects and the intuitive interface make it a good choice for beginners as well, especially since it makes it possible to see your Arduino board in action with just a few code lines and mouse clicks.
