bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 1 # Getting started with Blinky on mbed OS
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 2
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 3 This guide reviews the steps required to get Blinky working on an mbed OS platform.
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 4
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 5 Please install [mbed CLI](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-cli#installing-mbed-cli).
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 6
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 7 ## Import the example application
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 8
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 9 From the command-line, import the example:
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 10
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 11 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 12 mbed import mbed-os-example-blinky
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 13 cd mbed-os-example-blinky
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 14 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 15
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 16 ### Now compile
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 17
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 18 Invoke `mbed compile`, and specify the name of your platform and your favorite toolchain (`GCC_ARM`, `ARM`, `IAR`). For example, for the ARM Compiler 5:
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 19
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 20 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 21 mbed compile -m K64F -t ARM
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 22 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 23
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 24 Your PC may take a few minutes to compile your code. At the end, you see the following result:

bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 73 ## Troubleshooting
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 74
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 75 1. Make sure `mbed-cli` is working correctly and its version is `>1.0.0`
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 76
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 77 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 78 mbed --version
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 79 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 80
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 81 If not, you can update it:
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 82
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 83 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 84 pip install mbed-cli --upgrade
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 85 ```
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 86
bhimebau 0:8032d2ab060f 87 2. If using Keil MDK, make sure you have a license installed. [MDK-Lite](http://www.keil.com/arm/mdk.asp) has a 32 KB restriction on code size.
