How to get source code onto a PIC microcontroller

How do you get source code onto a PIC microcontroller? In this tutorial we will go through five steps so that you can transfer C source code onto a PIC microcontroller using the MPLAB IDE, XC8 compiler, the MPLAB IPE, and the PICkit3. Let's go!

Thanks for watching, and let me know in the comments if you have any questions!
