Hardware Assembly

All you need to get started using the Qwiic Shield for Thing Plus is to solder the included stackable headers or
whichever headers you choose to the shield and, if necessary, to your Thing Plus (or compatible board). If you
have never worked with an Arduino Shield before or need some tips, our Arduino Shields Tutorial provides detailed
instructions on how to assemble and use them.
Once you have soldered headers to your shield and connected it to your Thing Plus, it's time to start connecting
Qwiic devices! Below you can see the Qwiic Shield connected to a SparkFun Thing Plus - SAMD51 using the
Feather Stackable Header Kit included with the shield along with a couple of Qwiic Devices chained to it.
