1. Download the Arduino IDE (henceforth called the AIDE) from https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software, version 1.6.8 at the time of writing. Be careful to not download from www.arduino.org! See http://arduino.stackexchange.com/questions/11824/difference-between-arduino-cc-and-arduino-org for the soppy details

2. Install the ESP8266 addon in the AIDE https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/esp8266-thing-hookup-guide/installing-the-esp8266-arduino-addon.

   Open up Arduino, then go to the Preferences (File > Preferences). Then, towards the bottom of the window, copy this URL into the 'Additional Board Manager URLs' text box:

   http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json

   Here are some introductory tips on using the AIDE: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Environment

3. Make a fork of the ourWeather repo at https://github.com/switchdoclabs/OurWeatherWeatherPlus.git in your own github repository

4. Clone the forked version of OurWeatherWeatherPlus from your github repo to your local PC.

5. Open the file SDL_ESP8266_WeatherPlus.ino in the AIDE.

6. In the AIDE menu system select the 'Adafruit Huzzah ESP8266' in the Tools/Board menu. SDL advises that this board setting best fit the design of the WeatherPlus board.
