Get started

The best place to find everything you need to get started with your Raspberry Pi Pico is here.

Drag and drop MicroPython

You can program your Pico by connecting it to a computer via USB, then dragging and dropping a file onto it, so we’ve put together a downloadable UF2 file to let you install MicroPython more easily.

Download the MicroPython UF2 file by clicking the button below.
Push and hold the BOOTSEL button and plug your Pico into the USB port of your Raspberry Pi or other computer. Release the BOOTSEL button after your Pico is connected.
It will mount as a Mass Storage Device called RPI-RP2.
Drag and drop the MicroPython UF2 file onto the RPI-RP2 volume. Your Pico will reboot. You are now running MicroPython.

You can access the REPL via USB Serial. Our MicroPython documentation contains step-by-step instructions for connecting to your Pico and programming it in MicroPython.
