}Hello all
I learn ( code below) !!!
Blue button is on EXTI - works. When press LED2 blinks, press again - LED stops blink ( work as expected)
Press on Blue button also sends message ( debugging purposes ) to Serial comm 9600 ( works as expected )
Now I added Keypad_Read() function to read pressed key ( this doesn't work ) Please advice me on getting
keypad only
connected 4x4 keypad as below
My code below

Thank you @mƎALLEm
This code is just a draft - just to see board led+but+usart in action

Even if it's a draft it induces issues. You need to keep interrupts execution as short as possible while printf stretches the execution and blocks the interrupt for awhile.
