About libraries and SDKs

We are developing using the following development environment. Are there any libraries or SDKs that we can use?

Also, Is HAL or LL a library?

[IDE] STM32CubeIDE 1.14.0

[MCU] STM32F412VGT6

That depends on your definition of "library".

They are supplied as source code which you include into your project, and compile along with your own code.

They are source code libraries.

Hello @pass3master

You can find in this link all Tools & Software that are compatible with the STM32F412VGT6 (boards that are using a similar MCUs, SW and HW tools,...).

Is HAL or LL a library?

The STM32Cube HAL is an STM32 embedded software layer that ensures maximized portability across the STM32 portfolio, while the LL APIs make up a fast, light-weight, expert-oriented layer which is closer to the hardware than the HAL. HAL and LL APIs can be used simultaneously with a few restrictions.

Best Regards.

Thank you for your response.
I see. It certainly depends on the definition of the library.
Thank you for your help.
