Make a `.zip` pack of your sketchbook, you should obtain a file called *Arduino.zip*. Make sure it is `.zip` format, any other archive formats will not work.
Go to [create.arduino.cc/editor](https://create.arduino.cc/editor). For some general information on how to get started on the Web Editor see [this tutorial](https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/Arduino_Genuino/getting-started-with-arduino-web-editor-4b3e4a?ref=platform&ref_id=424_trending___&offset=0). When you are logged in and ready, hit the import button on the sketchbook panel. A popup with some instructions on how to import files into the Web Editor will be displayed. Press `“Import”` to continue.
You will now see a file system window, select your *Arduino.zip* pack. Wait for the import process to finish. If your sketchbook is big (containing lots of files), this may take a while.

If you have libraries in your sketchbook, another report will tell you those that got successfully imported. If you have existing custom libraries with the same names, it’ll prompt you to overwrite the existing ones. Be sure to proceed with caution!
The Arduino community has written over 700 libraries that you can include in your sketches without having to install a thing. You can browse through all of them in the Library Manager and favorite the ones you like the most.

But what if you want to use your own custom library on the Web IDE? Just zip your custom library and click on the 'Import' button on the Library panel.
Please note that **all the libraries that you have added via the Library Manager on the desktop IDE will be already available on the Web Editor without having to do anything**. If you want to see their related examples or select a specific version, look for them on the online Library Manager.
