We've created a super-easy installation script that will install all pre-requisites and get your Mote up and running in a jiffy. To run it fire up Terminal which you'll find in Menu -> Accessories -> Terminal on your Raspberry Pi desktop like so:
In the new terminal window type:
curl -sS https://get.pimoroni.com/motephat | bash
If you choose to download examples you'll find them in /home/pi/Pimoroni/motephat/
.
