We will use for our examples STM32CubeIDE released by ST and completely free. STM32CubeIDE is a development tool and supports multi operative system (SO), which is part of the STM32Cube software ecosystem. STM32CubeIDE allows using a single platform to configure peripherals, to generate/compile/debug the code for STM32 microcontrollers and microprocessors. The framework used is Eclipse®/CDT, as tool-chain for the development is used GCC toolchain and GDB for the debugging.

To become familiar with the world of microcontrollers it is necessary to have a development board (also known as a kit), which generally allows you to start working on it easily. Fortunately, the ST provides a wide portfolio of development boards. In this guide, we will describe and use the Nucleo board.
The Nucleo has been introduced a few years ago and its line is divided into three main groups:
Nucleo-32;
Nucleo-64;
Nucleo-144.
