==Introduction==
With Phidgets, you can easily extend the functionality of your Raspberry Pi. Follow the steps below to get your first Python program running on your Pi!
 
==Install the Phidget Libraries==
If you are using a Raspberry Pi model 2 or above, you can simply enter the following command into the terminal to install the Phidget libraries:

<tabber>
Root=
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
curl -fsSL https://www.phidgets.com/downloads/setup_linux | bash - &&\
apt-get install -y libphidget22
</syntaxhighlight>
|-|
Non-Root=
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
curl -fsSL https://www.phidgets.com/downloads/setup_linux | sudo -E bash - &&\
sudo apt-get install -y libphidget22
</syntaxhighlight>
</tabber>
 
Your terminal will look something like this:

If you are using an older version of the Raspberry Pi, visit our [https://www.phidgets.com/docs/OS_-_Linux Linux page] and view the Source Install instructions.

==Install the Phidget Python Module==
Now that the libraries (drivers) are installed, the Phidget Python Modules can be installed. You can do this from a specific development environment, like [https://thonny.org/ Thonny] (bundled with Raspberry Pi OS), or you can install it system-wide through the terminal.

<tabber>
Terminal=
Open the terminal and enter the following command:
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
pip3 install Phidget22
</syntaxhighlight>
[[Image:Install_python_terminal.jpg|center|link=https://www.phidgets.com/docs/images/7/74/Install_python_terminal.jpg|500px]]
|-|
Thonny=
 Start by opening Thonny. 
[[Image:pi_thonny_1.png|link=https://www.phidgets.com/docs/images/6/67/Pi_thonny_1.png|500px]] 
Thonny defaults to a simple mode on the Raspberry Pi. Click on Switch to regular mode if you have not previously. 
[[Image:pi_thonny_2_2.png|link=https://www.phidgets.com/docs/images/c/c8/Pi_thonny_2_2.png|500px]] 
Next, select Tools > Manage Packages.

Finally, search for Phidget22 and press Install.

</tabber>

==Run Your Python Program==
Now that the Phidget libraries and Python module are installed, you can begin developing against your Phidgets on the Raspberry Pi with Python!
