2. First Steps
This library is compatible with the avr, samd, sam, esp8266, esp32, stm32 architectures, so you should be able to use it on the following boards:
- Arduino Classic Family
- Arduino MKR Family
- Arduino Mega Family
- Electronic Cats Bast Family
- Electronic Cats MeowMeow Family
- Electronic Cats Michi
Note: while the library is supposed to compile correctly on these architectures, it might require specific hardware features that may be available only on some boards.

After installing the Arduino IDE you should see the next window.
After installing the Arduino IDE, it will be essential to install the library in order to start utilizing the MPU6050. Perform the next steps to install the MPU6050 library.
To do this, it is necessary to move your mouse to the menu and select “Sketch”, select “Include Library” from the list, and click on “Manage Libraries”.
A new window will open, write “MPU6050”.
The library that you have to look for is the one that has to say “by Electronic Cats”, as in the following image.
After finding the library, it is necessary to press the button “Install”.
And that's all there is to it; you already own everything necessary to begin programming using our library.
