PWM Help with Nucleo F401 - From Scratch

I'm stuck on figuring out how to set a PWM output with the F4 Nucleo board.

Could a kind and gentle soul please walk me through all of the code needed for a simple 10kHz 20% duty PWM on PA5, which is connected to LD2 on the F4 Nucleo.

I've tried CubeMX, but I don't fully understand all of the parameters. With a single non-mbed example, I believe I'll be set.

Thank you

Here are a couple of blind ports from the STM32F401C-DISCO which should work,
