+# Tooling check
+
+## Setup check
+
+✅ First, let's check that you have installed all the required tools.
+
+❗ The first two commands *must* return version `0.8.x`
+
+``` console
+$ cargo flash --version
+0.8.0
+
+$ cargo embed --version
+0.8.0
+
+$ cargo size --version
+cargo-size 0.3.0
+
+$ nrfutil version
+nrfutil version 6.1.0
+```
+
+## More tools
+
+✅ Now let's install some tools shipped with the workshop material.
+
+### Beginner workshop
+
+From the `tools` folder run these commands *from different terminals so they'll run in parallel*:
+
+- `cargo install --path dk-run`
+- `cargo install --path usb-list`
+- `cargo install --path dongle-flash`
+- `cargo install --path serial-term`
+- `cargo install --path change-channel`
+
+Leave the processes running in the background.
