Using a prototype board for micro-controller could save circuit construction, reducing any wrong wiring on bread-board. A development board or prototype board for PIC micro-controller costs around 40USD at local electronics stores.
However we can make our own hand-made development board at home using a simple DIY method with some used components. It doesn’t cost any money due to my own in-house components.
I have some 8-bit micro-controller including PIC1F6877A, PIC16F887, PIC18F4520, PIC18F4450, etc. So Decide to make my own prototype board using existing components.
This DIY prototyping board could fit PIC16F877A, PIC16F887, PIC18F4550, etc. It has a USB type-B connector for PIC18F4550 USB micro-controller. For more information you can see this link.
It has some sample code written using MPLABX IDE and XC8 C compiler,
