Programming Bare Microcontroller Chips

You can use a JTAG programming tool for this purpose. Pinout of the programmer looks like this:You can find matching pins on the IC:When you design your custom board, you can put in a row of header pins connected to these pins. When your PCB is assembled, use spring loaded pins or a cable connector to program the board. Somewhat like this (image source):.

I'm an electronics hobbyist and I have done a lot of electronics projects using launchpads like MSP430G2553, Arduino and Tiva C Series, so I never faced any problems to upload code to these microcontrollers.

But now for one of my projects I want to use an MSP430F6736 as it has features my project requires. But there is no launchpad with this microcontroller IC on the market.

So, I'm confused about how to use this microcontroller in my project. If I can manage to upload a blink sketch in to it I can do the entire project - but I have no idea how to upload code to such bare microcontrollers.

I have seen a lot of people using bare microcontrollers in their projects. Please help me.

Edit-

Thank you so much for your suggestions. I searched online after reading your solution and found ez430 emulator can be used to program most of MSP430 microcontrollers. I have a MSP430G2 launchpad and it turns out that it has ez430 emulator onboard which can be used to program and debug MSP430F6736 through SBWTDIO and SBWTCK pins.
