Following the Arduino IDE install instructions for the SWAN, I notice the Arduino IDE Board Manager indicates the following as DEPRECIATED. Is there an alternative board manager now preferred or necessary? “STM32 MCU based boards”

Hey @JimM ! It looks like ST changed the primary branch of their repo from master to main, which changes the location of the default boards manager URL. So you’ll need to go into Arduino preferences and change https://github.com/stm32duino/BoardManagerFiles/raw/master/package_stmicroelectronics_inde…

@bsatrom . I can confirm the revised link to STM32 MCU in Arduino Board Manager works! Thanks!

It doesn’t seem necessary to install the ‘STM32CubeIDE’ in order to use the Arduino IDE. I don’t plan on using the STM32CubeIDE, I just want to use the Arduino IDE. The STM32CubeIDE is over 2 GB in size! It does seem necessary to install the ‘STM32CubeProgrammer’. When I tried to compile in the…

@adriatic . Thank-you for the pointer. These days, I am trying to use Platform.io extension in VS Code as my first choice of Arduino coding with the SWAN.

I am quite happy that you liked my preferred approach - Choice of the IDE (Integrated Development Environment , which is by the way, recommended by Blues team. While I have yet to go through alternative Swan apps development methods to be able to make objective comparisons, I am using VSCode from it…
