The Library_text file has the URL to get access to the Adafruit AVR library. Copy this to File > Preferences... > Additional Boards Manager URLs

Then go to the Boards Manager under Tools > Board: > Boards Manager... Scroll through the list and find the Adafruit AVR Boards library and install it.

Arduino should now have access to this library and the Itsy Bitsy 32u4 5V 16MHz can be selected.

The avrdude directory can be copied to the C:\ drive. This is used to download the Robot Application. If it cannot be placed in the C:\ drive, edit the Robot_Application batch file to place the correct path for avrdude.exe and avrdude.conf. The source code file for the Robot Application is also included as a Microchip Studio project.
