Hello!

If you go to https://circuitpython.org/downloads, select the board that you want to put CircuitPython on, and click the "DOWNLOAD .UF2 NOW" button. That'll get you the file you need to copy to your board to get started.

As for the software you can use to write the code, CP's recommended IDE is Mu, which you can get at: https://codewith.mu/en/download

I found the guide at https://learn.adafruit.com/welcome-to-circuitpython pretty helpful for setting everything up.

Yep, all links and info above are good. Nothing should be redirecting to Microsoft though.
