How can I work with a board if it is not available in the online compiler?

Hi,

I've just got myself a STM32F4DISCOVERY but it's page on the mbed site says that there isn't yet online support for it, and gives the following github link as an alternative:

https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/tree/master/targets/TARGET_STM/TARGET_STM32F4/TARGET_STM32F407xG/TARGET_DISCO_F407VG

My question is what I am supposed to do with these 4 source files to get code running on the board?

Thanks in advance!

Can you be more specific about which board you have? Some of the processors are cousins and the mbed board *may* work. Otherwise it will require cloning the mbed-os source from github and changing the target processor pin definition files (and possibly more). Once you post up the response can be clarified.

Hi

Check https://os.mbed.com/docs/v5.7/tools/index.html

And in particular Arm Mbed CLI part

It is going to be far easier if you just use a board that is already supported. Adding a new target is for the most part non-trivial.
