Installing the ViewPoint Arduino Library

Arduino Library Manager

In the Arduino IDE, open Tools → Manage Libraries, search for ViewPoint, and click Install.

Manual install

Clone or download the repository into the Arduino libraries directory:

cd ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries
git clone https://github.com/voidloopers/ViewPoint.git

The libraries folder is found within the Arduino sketchbook folder, whose location can be found within the Settings dialog. Click Arduino IDE → Settings and look for the Sketchbook location text box. The libraries folder is not necessarily auto created — if it does not yet exist, simply create the folder and copy ViewPoint into it.

Restart the Arduino IDE so it picks up the new library.

Confirm the install by opening the HelloPlotter example (File → Examples → ViewPoint → Cartesian → HelloPlotter) and uploading it to a board.
