Resources and Going Further
While this is a lot of information to take in, it shows how to hack the Arduino IDE to load custom board definitions. These steps should work for other ATtiny devices that are supported by the micronucleus project, such as:
You might have to modify the pins_arduino.h file, however, if you plan to use a different ATtiny.
ATtiny84 Pinout
If you need additional support, please check out the following resources.
If you want to go further with the ATtiny, please check out our additional tutorials that showcase the ATtiny:
