<a name="iot-dc-install-dc"></a>

This tutorial walks you through the installation and configuration of the AWS IoT Device Client and the creation of AWS IoT resources that you'll use in this and other demos.

**To start this tutorial:**
+ Have your local host computer and Raspberry Pi from [the previous tutorial](iot-dc-prepare-device.md) ready.

This tutorial can take up to 90 minutes to complete.

**When you're finished with this topic:**
+ Your IoT device will be ready to use in other AWS IoT Device Client demos.
+ You'll have provisioned your IoT device in AWS IoT Core.
+ You'll have downloaded and installed the AWS IoT Device Client on your device.
+ You'll have saved an image of your device's microSD card that can be used in subsequent tutorials.

**Required equipment:**
+ Your local development and testing environment from [the previous section](iot-dc-prepare-device-test.md)
+ The Raspberry Pi that you used in [the previous section](iot-dc-prepare-device-test.md)
+ The microSD memory card from the Raspberry Pi that you used in [the previous section](iot-dc-prepare-device-test.md)
