IDE 1.8.5: cannot find SAMD library

Development Tools IDE 1.x
1

In getting started of MKR1010 WIFI board, I am asked to install the SAMD Library

However, this library is nowhere to be found in IDE 1.8.5

Any suggestions??

It's not a library, it's a "core". This contains the board definition for the MKR WiFi 1010

Do this:

  • Tools > Board > Boards Manager
  • Wait for download to finish
  • Scroll down until you see "Arduino SAMD Boards". Click on it.
  • Click "Install".
  • Wait for the installation to finish.
  • Click "Close".

You will now find an Arduino MKR WiFi 1010 option under the Tools > Board menu.

Thank you very much. So I learned something today :slight_smile:

However, this core was installed already, so no problem there, I am just trying to find a reason, why my WIFI does not work. I placed a post here [solved] Arduino MKR WIFI 1010: Communication with WiFi module failed! - MKRWIFI1010 - Arduino Forum
for some help, but so far no luck.

But thanks again for your help.
