The Arduino Yún is an Arduino board unlike any other. While programming it is very similar to the Arduino Leonardo and uses the same processor, the Atmel ATmega32U4, it also has an additional processor, an Atheros AR9331, running Linux and the OpenWrt wireless stack. Programming the 32U4 via USB is identical to the Arduino Leonardo. Once you’ve configured the Yún to connect to your WiFi network, you can program the 32U4 via WiFi as well.

We prepared a video to explain how to take the first steps with the board, you can watch it below and then keep reading the Getting Started Guide:
