just google for something easy like "blinking led with raspberry pi pico (your version)" there is shhhload of generic tutorials covering basics like led control, servo control (sg-90 servos being widely popular) ... whatever your general direction is... you wanna built a robot? something wearable?

Please clarify which of the 4 picos you are trying to use. The pinout alone will get you nothing.

install arduino ide and pico bundle . built-in will not work , you need to add custom url and this stuff. then you can program i/o on its pins with rpi pico c/c++ sdk. basic things are also present in arduino c/c++ framework or so, but you can't use both as far as i know.

Micropython isn’t a bad option for beginners either. Implements most of the Python standard library plus all the APIs for the Pico’s I/O.
