This will walk you through the process of getting started with the Daisy.
If you plan on using Arduino, check out Getting Started in Arduino.
First we're going to upload the Blink example to your Daisy hardware using our Web Programmer tool.
In order to use this tool you will need the following:
- Google Chrome web browser (version 61 or newer)
- Daisy Hardware
- Micro USB Cable
Here are the steps for uploading Blink to the Daisy:
-
In a Chrome browser window, navigate to the Electrosmith Web Programmer
-
Once there, connect the Daisy Seed development board to your computer using a micro USB cable. (If you are using Windows you may have to reset your USB driver before proceeding. See our Zadig wiki page for full instructions.)
-
Put your Daisy into flashable mode by holding down the BOOT button, and pressing the RESET button. Once you release the RESET button you can let go of the BOOT button (You'll know you performed the button combo correctly if the USER LED on your Daisy stops flashing)
-
Connect Daisy as a DFU device by clicking the "Connect" button at the top of the Web Programmer page
-
In the dialog box that opens, select "DFU in FS Mode" and then click "Connect"
-
Press the "Flash Blink!" button.
Upon a successful flash you should see the following output:
Erasing DFU device memory
Copying data from browser to DFU device
Wrote 34016 bytes
Manifesting new firmware
Done!
The onboard LED on your Daisy Seed should now be blinking!

Web Programmer is an online tool capable of flashing precompiled binaries to your Daisy device using a graphical interface. You can browse our available programs, or upload your own
-
The Daisy Seed pinout diagram is located on our Wiki
-
To start adding your own circuits to the Daisy, you can browse our Seed example programs which are each accompanied by a schematic, breadboard diagram, and Fritzing file. This is a great way to get started with basic circuit design such as audio IO, ADC inputs, using potentiometers, etc.
