VS Code and the STM32 VS Code Extension are available free of charge. The new support extends the selection of tools available to all STM32 developers, including hardware integrators and mass-market customers that typically choose from commercial tools or ST’s free Eclipse-based STM32CubeIDE environment. “Communities for whom VS Code is the preferred environment, including high-level software developers, academics, and enthusiasts and makers, can now choose to make their ideas real using STM32 MCUs without leaving their preferred development environment.” “Connecting VS Code with our STM32 ecosystem makes the power of the industry-leading STM32 family of microcontrollers more accessible than ever,” said Daniel Colonna, marketing director Microcontrollers, STMicroelectronics. It also lets developers accustomed to working on high-level and consumer applications easily create embedded solutions that are power-efficient, compact, and economical. VS Code is a popular Integrated Development Environment (IDE), acclaimed for its ease of use and flexible features such as IntelliSense that simplifies and accelerates code editing.Īccess to the STM32 ecosystem, from within VS Code, now makes these features available to even more embedded developers of the wide STM32 community. STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor provider serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has announced tool extensions that bring the advantages of Microsoft Visual Studio Code (VS Code) to STM32 microcontrollers.
