PyCharm is a Python-specific IDE. This means it is specifically made to edit and run only python scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
To download this IDE, go to the following link: [https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/](https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/download/) and download the Community version corresponding to your computer.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Double-click on the installer once the file has finished downloading, and you should be greeted with the setup window.
|
||||
|
||||
Keep clicking “Next” until you get to the “Installation Options” screen, and ensure that you tick the following boxes:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Finally, click “Next”, then “Install”.
|
||||
|
||||
Once PyCharm has been installed, open the application, and you should be greeted with the below screen. Next, click on the “New Project” button highlighted in red in the below screenshot.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
PyCharm will greet you with the “New Project Window”, where you can set the save location of this project. It is best that you make a folder for your project somewhere you can find it later. Once you have selected your location, click the “Create” button highlighted in red in the following image to start coding.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
PyCharm will then install Python if it hasn’t already been installed and open the code editor:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
We now need to install the Micromelon Python library so that we can communicate with the Rover. To do this, click on “View” in the top left corner of the screen, then click on “Tool Windows” in the drop-down, then finally click “Python Packages”. This will open a new panel at the bottom of the window where you can search for and install any python package. Click in the search bar highlighted in red, and type “micromelon”. Click on the result and click the “Install” button highlighted in red.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Once the Micromelon python module has been installed, click the “-“ above the install button to close the packages panel.
|
||||
|
||||
You have completed all the steps required to setup PyCharm to use Python and the Micromelon Python Module. Follow our guide [**here**](/resources/getting-started-with-the-python-module)** **to make your first Rover program.
