Starting up with ST Cube MX etc\n00b question

Hello everyone,

I am trying to start working with ST programming tools and looking for a bit of advice.

My first task is to build a project from a bunch of .c files which were developed by a proper programming engineer. The microcontroller we use is STM32F051C8. I wonder which software should I use? 

I have downloaded STMCubeMx, CooCox, STMStudio and something called STM32Cube_FW_F0_V1.4.0 which I cant understand what is.

Realistically, I am just looking for learning resources, which I am sure there are plenty of them, somewhere. 

Many Thanks

I've put together a few tutorials on using CubeMX generated code with the free CooCox CoIDE environment.  It includes a blink program, an example of console I/O (printf) through the USB port, and interrupt-driven UART support.  You can find them at:

if you like them, let me know.  Also check back soon if you are interested in a SD card example.

Hi ast8346,

As a newbie with ST products, I advise you to read this 

http://www.st.com/st-web-ui/static/active/en/resource/technical/document/user_manual/DM00119724.pdf

. It explains how to  start with STM32CubeF0 firmware package .

Thank You! That is much appreciated!

I will study this, 

I am afraid I will be a bit slow at this, but if you don't mind I hope I can ask you some questions that I'm sure I will find. 

Best Regards,
