### How to setup and configure Arduino IDE for Tasmota compilation and upload. ## **How to setup and configure Arduino IDE for Tasmota compilation and upload.**
**It is not recommended to use Arduino IDE for compiling Tasmota firmware, use gitpod or VSC to build.**
If you did not use Arduino IDE until now, use Platformio or VSC to build Tasmota fimware. **For these IDEs, setup is much easier and Tasmota project is already configured for.**
For these IDEs, setup is much easier and Tasmota project is already configured for. **At the moment it is _**NOT**_ possible to build Tasmota with Arduino IDE and the recommended core pre 2.6.!**

- About the issue of missing header files and/or libraries while compiling that users had, it is possible that the library folder is in the wrong place. That issue can be happen if you installed your Arduino IDE in a virtual environment. This came up after some tests (6) of an installation in `VM-Ware Workstation 14 Pro - 14.1.1 build-7528167` with not all current updates from VM-Ware. The library folder was placed in **/portable/libraries** and not in **/portable/sketchbook/libraries**. We can't say why that happens but there is the possibilty. So please check it when you get compile errors with missing header files and/or libaries. After updating VM-Ware and a new installation of Arduino IDE 1.8.8 the issue was gone. The installation of Arduino IDE 1.8.8 on windows 7 pro were 100% ok without any issue. Right now the newer version of Arduino IDE is avaiable.
