===Starting a new project===
+
To get started in PlatformIO, follow the [http://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/ide/atom.html#quick-start PlatformIO Quickstart tutorial]
   −
To start a new project, select <code>PlatformIO &rarr; Initialize or Update PlatformIO Project</code> from the top bar. From this menu, simple select the board that you are programming for (Usually will be Teensy 3.2), navigate to the directory that you want to generate the project in. You should create a new directory that is the name of your project, as you want nothing but the project's contents to be in the directory that you are working in.
+
===Library Dependencies===
   −
===Project Setup===
+
If you used the Ardiuno IDE, you will be used to having an folder on your computers where you install libraries. If you downloaded a project from the internet that needed a bunch of new libraries, you would have to install all of them manually. Thankfully, with PlatformIO, you no longer have to worry about this. Dependencies for libraries are added to the <code>platformio.ini<\code> file with a github link, so that they are automatically downloaded if you do not already have them on your computer.
