### Flash the board
Flashing the Feather nRF52840 is described in the
common [Adafruit nRF52 Bootloader](@ref boards_common_adafruit-nrf52-bootloader) section.
Example with `hello-world` application:
```sh
make BOARD=adafruit-feather-nrf52840-express -C examples/basic/hello-world flash
```
### Terminal
To connect a terminal to the Feather, RIOT chooses `stdio_cdc_acm` per default.
This lets you access the Feather directly over USB.
You have several alternative possibilities to connect to the board.
1. With
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {.mk}
USEMODULE += stdio_uart
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and an FTDI adapter connected to the Feather's RX and TX ports you can use
UART-based terminals to connect to the feather
2. With
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {.mk}
USEMODULE += stdio_rtt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
you can use the Segger J-Link Programmer as a serial interface to the device.
