What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE works with all Arduino manufactured mother boards and supports large number of libraries. It is easy to integrate code and implement it on Arduino supported boards by using this IDE. It also has serial monitor feature which shows real time data from connected devices. It will be used frequently by students and hobbyists. Support is provided inform of informative blog to clear any doubts regarding usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE has all features such as editor, debugger and compiler. But the dumping of code to mother boards sometimes fails even devices used are supported. Implementation on some boards are difficult since some of boards supports different type of USB cables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE is used to create, compile, upload code to Arduino supported microcontroller boards. Easy to integrate libraries on developed programs from predefined library lists. Very easy to implement code on Arduino boards using this IDE by connecting board to computer with a data cable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Customer support is only provided in the form of blogs on Arduino website. No other way of support is provided. Arduino IDE need to be updated on computer inorder to upload code to boards without any error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

It has very simple interface for users and it can be easy to import the programs into Arduino board for integration of programs in c/c++ for project purposes. Mostly I am using this for Arduino UNO Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

When deploying the programs into Arduino board it crashes sometimes. Sometimes port setting are changing when deploying programs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino Integrated Development Environment is a tool for programming Arduino boards. The latest version, 2.0.3 has many features like auto compilation, it has a built-in debugger and can be used to sync the Arduino cloud sketchbook to the local computer. These features make using Arduino IDE easy and user-friendly. Real-time Sync with the cloud makes it accessible from anywhere.

The best thing is it is free to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Although the debugger helps a lot, sometimes it becomes difficult to trace the errors, particularly while using external libraries. Sometimes Arduino is not detected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

The best thing I like about Arduino IDE is that it is straightforward opensource software and can be used by beginners and experts for Embedded System Development. Another major thing I liked about Arduino IDE is it can be easily integrated with various Micro-Controllers and has various libraries support to do projects. The C programming used is easier to write and debug in Arduino IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Some dislikes I had with Arduino IDE are Port errors that occur while interconnecting with the Micro-Controllers, App crashes during complex program execution and crashes when few libraries are installed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

It's simple, lightweight and very versatile. It has a huge library and a large collection of compatible boards. They have an excellent blog that can solve most of your common questions. Regular updates keep coming, and new libraries keep getting updated. They literally have how-to pages for most of the libraries they make and it's the easiest place to start as any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

The compiler is slow. Like, very slow. If your code has 10k lines and more than a few separate files it takes forever to compile the changes. That's the point to move to Visual Studio Code. Oh, and it does crash from time to time, it doesn't start very fast either, you know, being a java applet and all... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

I have more than 5 year experience with Arduino IDE. I like the ease of use of Arduino. The programming structures and burning tools are very useful. Compare to conventional C++ programming, Arduino have a large amount of header files that is very useful for programming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Some times, COM ports didnot connect to Arduino automatically. I mean, when we connect Arduino device to PC, some device automatically identify the IDE. But some of them not. ( For example, Arduino Leonardo didnot automatically identify by the IDE) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

We must take into account that Arduino has a large support community among programmers; it is a very large and active community. As for the IDE, the ease of programming on some boards has been improved while still maintaining its classic environment. It has a large list of predefined programming boards. I love that when you install it, it comes with some predefined libraries in addition to the graphical examples. From the official website, you have access to the Arduino Reference to guide you with the programming language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

That other very common boards like the ESP8266 should be added. The serial monitor is still a floating window and not an area of the workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best IDE for Development Board"
5/5
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

For beginners it is the best IDE, as you can do everything by GUI, you don't need to know the micro details concerning every microcontroller/microprocessor, which is used in the development board. You can just add the board and download libraries and you can code and upload it in. You also don't need special hardware and be concerned about the baud rate and even use a serial monitor and plotter to check your values in real-time. AVRdude is nicely incorporated into the GUI platform. Extensive community support and available on all platforms for free are some great benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

We can dark mode and also autocomplete feature in the IDE, which will help a lot also sometimes it doesn't correctly identify the syntax error in code after compiling it, it tells a line number which will be near the error line but not exact. When your development board run into a problem it does very little to describe a problem. AVR dude should be allowed to interact individually with code, it has many options in its CMD tool, but none are allowed manually in Arduino IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Apretty simple programme with various possibilities from all of the boars that Arduino offers. The Arduino programming language is quite simple and free of flaws. Things which I liked in Arduino are-

1) Packages and libraries present are really helpful.

2) Installation process is fast.

3) Best for beginners who are getting into electronics.

4) It has high ease of writing code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Arduino is great IDE tool but, few things which I did not like are-

1) Executing time is much higher when there is an error, keeps user waiting.

2) User interface of the IDE looks a bit old.

3) Help support through documention is less.

4) Lacks dark theme. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
