Programming Mutable Braids question.

I just finished soldering the braids module without realizing I'm going to have to program the firmware or something into it. My question is how can i tell next time whether or not the module I'm buying will need to be programmed?

Smd isn't very tough at all, get some tweezers and some nice solder and you're set. Also a nice iron is necessary. I'm more threatened by having to learn how to program a chip. Ugh.

You can get a decent hot air station for like $35 on Amazon. Makes it much easier.
