Hi everyone,
I’m working on a project involving the STM32F030R8 microcontroller, and I came across this custom board design:
https://www.pcbway.com/project/shareproject/ARMando__STM32F030R8_board_.html
Has anyone here used this specific board before, or can anyone provide insights on how to effectively get started with it in the STMduino environment? I'm especially interested in:
Setting up the toolchain for STM32F030R8 with STMduino
Troubleshooting any common issues that might arise during development
Suggestions for libraries or peripheral setups that would be helpful for this microcontroller
Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Doesn't it tell you that on the page you linked ?

My advice & experience is that you'd be better off starting with a genuine, supported manufacturer's board - such as the NUCLEO-F030R8:
https://www.st.com/en/evaluation-tools/nucleo-f030r8.html
Note that it comes complete with a built-in, genuine ST-Link.
There are ready-to-go examples in STM32CubeIDE.
That will give you the least friction to get started and learn the product and the tools.
You will then be equipped to move on to custom boards ...
