We provide support for a variety of programming languages. Each language has code samples for you to use as well as an in-depth API for you to reference. If you aren't sure which language to use, we recommend using [[Language - Python|Python]], because it is quick to learn.
We provide a variety of supported languages for using Phidgets. Each language has its own ''libraries'', which may be found on the language pages below, along with code examples and an in-depth API.
 
Many languages also depend on the ''core drivers'' being installed as well.  These drivers can be found on the operating system pages above.
 
Phidgets supports the following languages.  If the language you have chosen is not fully supported with examples for all products then there are some resources available for you to fill in the gaps. First we recommend you look at the API which will show you all of the functions you can use.  Next, you should look at the code samples that ''are'' available in that language.  Finally you should look at code samples for your device in other languages.  Between those three things you should be able to piece together what you need to be doing, as always, if you run into trouble {{ContactUs|contact us}}.  If you have some flexibility in what language to use, we recommend using a '''Core Language''':

<nowiki>*</nowiki> Most languages have code samples for all Phidgets, but some have only some devices (visit the language page to learn which ones), and some only have examples for basic VINT Hub objects: DigitalInput, DigitalOutput, VoltageInput, and VoltageRatioInput. You can use the {{Phidget22API}} with these examples to write code for other Phidget objects.
<nowiki>*</nowiki> Objective C has examples for all devices in macOS, but only some devices in iOS. If you're developing an Objective C program for iOS, we recommend that you use the existing examples while referencing the macOS examples for the devices that don't have iOS examples.

Language Support

We provide support for a variety of programming languages. Each language has code samples for you to use as well as an in-depth API for you to reference. If you aren't sure which language to use, we recommend using Python, because it is quick to learn.
