In the file dialog select the downloaded ZIP file and your library will be installed automatically.

The Tweaking 4All files can be outdated, so always check for updates at the GitHub pages.Īfter download, install them in your Arduino software via the menu “ Sketch” “ Import Library…” “ Add Library…”. Get the files from GitHub ( Adafruit_GFX, Adafruit_ST7735 and optionally SD) or download the files from Tweaking 4All. which is independent of the used controller.Īdafruit_ST7735 is the library we need to pair with the graphics library for hardware specific functions of the ST7735 TFT Display/SD-Card controller.įor SD-Card support you’ll also need the SD library from Adafruit. We will need the following libraries:Īdafruit_GFX for graphics library functions like drawing lines, circles, etc. Download the Librariesīefore we can get started, we will need to download the AdaFruit Libraries. This is exactly the reason why I think buying your hardware at AdaFruit is recommended, for the one or two extra dollars, you’ll get awesome support. The AdaFruit libraries are clearly designed for use with the Arduino developer tools, whereas the SainSmart files are less obvious for that purpose.
Since the libraries offered by SainSmart can be confusing for beginners, we will use to the Libraries offered by AdaFruit. To save you a lot of time developing applications (Sketches) that use the display, both SainSmart and AdaFruit offer very helpful libraries.
