# Loading Apps onto Your Universe Badge

Welcome to the GitHub Universe badge tutorial, using the Badger 2040 (or 2350) by [Pimoroni](https://pimoroni.com). This will walk you through the process of loading a simple app onto your badge. Once you've completed this tutorial, you'll know how to install other apps (available in the [examples](/examples) folder), and be ready to learn how to create your own Badger programs as well!

The relative links to examples, examples/copilot should be updated to absolute paths /eink/examples and /eink/examples/copilot for consistency with the other link fixes in this PR. The relative paths would not work correctly when viewed from the repository root.

When you tire of prebuilt examples, try building a program of your own. Find an example you can modify, or read the [feature and function reference](/2040reference.md) to dig deeper.

If you build something fun, consider open-sourcing your code so other attendees can try it out.
