No basic BLE HID examples!

[GS2]

Hello, for many years there are only 2 basic HID devices - keyboard and mouse and more recently - keyboard mouse combo! 

Is there any reason for not providing there examples? I guess that half of employees can do that task if this is so easy and obvious and that why it is not provided.

ST always provide generic examples for some of the use cases. So, when we provide a generic example such as the BLE_HID for the STM32WB and the BLE_HID_Mouse for the STM32WBA, we give you an example of implementation that you can follow it to understand how it works. Then, you have to do your own project adapted to your specific use case and based on the implementation of the example.

Yes, I am wondering who is deciding how to pick some of the use cases.

Is there any logic behind of giving example for a mouse for a board with 1.6km range, and not giving example for basic keyboard, like nobody in company used it or ever saw it.
Nordic Semiconductor and other companies have both mouse and keyboard examples, also not combo.

So many developers are looking for the same examples on internet - like yours:
USB HID Mouse and Keyboard Combo

As I've said before, examples are not for a specific use case. But it gives the configuration that could be a start for you to work and develop an application that satisfy your needs. For the post that you are referring to, is another context and it is asked years before the STM32WB release.

Hello,

You can find STM32WBA-BLE-HID-Keyboard example on STM32-Hotspot Github.
