You have **no need** to install any *IDE* or compile any tool chains. *PlatformIO*
has pre-built different development platforms and pre-configured settings for
the most popular embedded boards. For further details, please
refer to :ref:`faq_what_is_platformio`

Embedded Development. *Easier Than Ever.*
-----------------------------------------

* Colourful command-line output
* :ref:`IDE Integration <ide>` with *Arduino, Eclipse, Energia, Qt Creator,
  Sublime Text, Vim, Visual Studio*
* :ref:`ci` with *AppVeyor, Circle CI, Drone, Shippable, Travis CI*
* Built-in :ref:`Serial Port Monitor <cmd_serialports_monitor>` and
  configurable build :ref:`-flags/-options <projectconf_build_flags>`
* Pre-built tool chains, :ref:`frameworks` for the
  :ref:`Development Platforms <platforms>`

Smart Code Builder. *Fast and Reliable.*
----------------------------------------

* Reliable, automatic dependency analysis and detection of build changes
* Improved support for parallel builds
* Ability to share built files in a cache
* Lookup for external libraries which are installed via :ref:`librarymanager`

The Missing Library Manager. *It's here!*
-----------------------------------------

* Friendly Command-Line Interface
* Modern `Web 2.0 Library Search <http://platformio.org/#!/lib>`_
* Library dependency management
* Automatic library updating
* It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux (+ARM).
