Wait until the status bar at the bottom of the Arduino IDE window says 'Done uploading' then close the Arduino IDE.

Click the 'Upload' button the send the Firmata program to the Arduino.

Open File > Examples > Firmata > StandardFirmata.

It will look something like /dev/tty.usb(.) on Mac, /dev/ttyUSB(.) on Linux or COM.

Select the Serial port for your board under Tools > Serial Port.

Open the Arduino IDE and select 'Arduino Leonardo' under the Tools > Board menu.The module does not get power via USB so you'll also need to connect a (blue) power module to the Arduino module to any of the 3 inputs on the Arduino module (d0, a0 or a1).

Connect the Arduino module to the computer using USB.

Johnny-Five communicates with Arduino using the Firmata protocol, so you'll need to install Firmata on Arduino as a once-off step before you can start programming the board: Atom, Sublime Text, for editing JavaScript files. Use your favourite text editor or JavaScript Integrated Development Environment (IDE) e.g. little-bits-js) in your home directory, and then run the following commands via the terminal to change into that directory (cd) and install johnny-five and other libraries required for all of the projects: Download the project files and extract to a directory (e.g. We'll need to install the johnny-five framework using the Node Package Manager. On Mac open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app or on Windows, launch Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. We'll be using the terminal (command line) to run our programs. Johnny-Five is an Open Source Arduino programming framework for Node.js that we will use to communicate with the LittleBits Arduino At Heart Module. We'll be using the Node.js platform to run the JavaScript programs that we develop.

You can download all of the project files as a zip file here or visit AnnaGerber/little-bits-js on GitHub. At a minimum, you'll need an Arduino At Heart module, a power module and at least one input or output module. The tutorial projects are organised by LittleBits kit so that you can find projects that will work with the bits that you have. This tutorial will get you started with programming with LittleBits modules using JavaScript. You can write programs to work with LittleBits circuits using the Little Bits Arduino At Heart module to read from input modules like buttons and dimmers, or to control output modules producing light, movement and sound. LittleBits are modular electronic components that snap together via magnetic connectors.
