You would simply replace your mbed 2.0 library with this one https://github.com/armmbed/mbed-os. The mbed 2.0 library is independent of mbed OS, so you won't be able to use the "update" functionality in the online compiler. Our docs website also has loads of mbed 5 examples and information about mbed OS!

Accepted Answer

Can you explain simply replacing? With a step by step process on how to update with the online compiler. thank you

Also, in the online compiler, you will need to remove the old "mbed" library and replace it with the new "mbed-os" library. Import the library by URL with this link: https://github.com/armmbed/mbed-os

Jenny, that link has no information on how to update the version of online compiler, therefore it isn't answering the actual question of the user.
