Does STM32Cube IDE require internet to operate?

Once the IDE is installed, is connection to the internet required while using it ?

 

Thanks

No, you don't need the internet to build or run projects.

You do need the internet to download firmware packages.

It depends what version you have!

I think it was 1.15.x which introduced the requirement to login?

That's why I've stuck with 1.13.0!

 

Also depends on what you mean by "operate"; eg, when starting a new project, it might need to download a new firmware pack - but once that's done, it's done.

Thank you for the reply.

Latest version 1.16 is the one I am referring to.

By operate I mean to build and run projects

You do need the internet to download firmware packages.

But it's possible to download them manually from the ST website as zip files(requires account ,grrrr) and then install them offline on another machine (via Help/Manage Embedded Software Packages/From Local).

Thank you Barry. So essentially, one can download everything needed and then once installed one can go off-line. Great stuff!
