I don’t know about you, but it doesn’t take long for me to get tired of the standard Arduino IDE. Don’t get me wrong; if all you are doing is trying out new code, compiling and uploading to your board for testing, then the IDE is fine. But when you are working on a project and desire a full featured IDE you have to look no further than Atmel Studio.

In the video below I review and demo the steps involved to get your Arduino board up and running (programmed) with Atmel Studio 6.0.
