This tutorial shows how to create a basic STM32 project on Linux using CodeVROOM.<\/p>\n

Before you begin, install the following packages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Package<\/td>\nName in APT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
GCC for ARM<\/td>\ngcc-arm-none-eabi<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Ninja<\/td>\nninja-build<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
CMake<\/td>\ncmake<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Also, make sure your system has a functioning xz executable, since CodeVROOM uses it to unpack the device packages.<\/p>\n

Once all the prerequisites have been fulfilled, download<\/a> the latest CodeVROOM archive and unpack it.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. CodeVROOM for Linux is distributed in .tar.xz<\/strong> files that include all the necessary binaries. To start it, run CodeVROOM-<platform>:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. CodeVROOM does not need installation, so you can click “Run without installing”, or install it to any location of your choice:
    \n\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. The installation only takes a few seconds and simply copies the files to another location and creates shortcuts. Once installed, or ran in-place, the main window will look like this:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. Select File->New->Project or use the toolbar command to open the project wizard selector. Select the CMake project wizard:
    \n\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. Proceed with the default choices for the project type:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. The next page allows selecting a toolchain to use. As of version 0.5, CodeVROOM only supports the embedded ARM toolchain, and it needs to be pre-installed via a package manager. Once it is selected, CodeVROOM will show a list of devices compatible with the toolchain:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. Select the device and click “Install” to proceed with the installation:
    \n\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  8. Once the package is installed, CodeVROOM will show the configuration options for the device. Proceed with the default ones:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  9. The next page allows choosing between basic project samples and vendor-supplied templates. Select “STM32CubeMX Samples”:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  10. Pick the FatFS_USBDisk<\/strong> sample and click “Finish”:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n
  11. CodeVROOM will create and load the project. You can build it via the Project->Build Workspace command:\"\"<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
