I'm trying to set up my new flora breakout board (here's the link for clarification: https://www.adafruit.com/product/659) using the test code given with the library; however, when I go to upload the code I get an error message saying that the board cannot be found. After looking up some stuff online I tried looking in the board manager on the Arduino ide and I cannot find anything for the adafruit flora board that I need. If anyone knows how to install the adafruit flora board or knows of a site to explain that I would appreciate the help. This is the link I found for installing the board: https://learn.adafruit.com/add-boards-arduino-v164/installing-boards
