First of all, you’ll need a USB to serial cable, which can easily be found on amazon, aliexpress and so on. Such a cable it about 1\u20ac, don’t spend more on it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On macOS: open a Terminal and type: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

screen \/dev\/tty.wchusbserial141330<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
The actual name of the device may differ, but it’s probably be something close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You now have a pretty nice shell, opened on your Nucleus, type \u00ab\u00a0help\u00a0\u00bb to show all available commands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
