Getting Started with the Arduino
Nano
The Arduino Nano is a small, complete, and breadboard-friendly board based on the
ATmega328P; offers the same connectivity and specs of the UNO board in a smaller form
factor.
The Arduino Nano is programmed using the
Development Environment common to all our boards and running both

Use your Arduino Nano on the Arduino Web IDE
All Arduino and Genuino boards, including this one, work out-of-the-box on the
Web Editor, no need to install anything.
The Arduino Web Editor is hosted online, therefore it will always be up-to-date with the
latest features and support for all boards. Follow this
browser and upload your sketches onto your board.
Use your Arduino Nano on the Arduino Desktop
IDE
If you want to program your Arduino Nano while offline you need to install the
Desktop IDE To connect the Arduino Nano to your computer, you'll need a Mini-B USB
cable. This also provides power to the board, as indicated by the blue LED (which is on the
bottom of the Arduino Nano 2.x and the top of the Arduino Nano 3.0).
