The PC Client software comes in many forms. The out-of-the-box Client is written in Python and has a Graphical User Interface (GUI). The GUI is well suited for beginners, but can only support a single Radio and a single Crazyflie at a time. The easiest way to start out is with the Bitcraze Virtual Machine (VM), which comes with all the files and dependencies pre-installed and can run on any computer (Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.).
For more advanced users who want to use the swarm capabilities of our platform will have to use the Client we developed in C and C++.
