-# ledcontrol
-
-A firmware project for the STM32F103C8T6 to control LED strips.
-
-## Usage
-
-Install the necessary software. For Arch Linux this works like this:
-```
-sudo pacman -S \
- base-devel \
- arm-none-eabi-binutils \
- arm-none-eabi-gcc \
- arm-none-eabi-gdb \
- arm-none-eabi-newlib
-```
-
-Clone this repository with all Git submodules:
-```
-git clone --recurse-submodules https://cgit.xengineering.eu/ledcontrol
-```
-
-Enter the repository and build the software
-```
-cd ledcontrol
-make
-```
-
-Connect your STM32F103C8T6 with an STLINK V2 debugger and flash the firmware:
-```
-bash ocd.sh
-# switch to a second terminal in the same folder
-bash gdb.sh build/ledcontrol.elf
-load
-run
-# CTRL + C will stop the execution
-# leave GDB with CTRL + D
-```
-
-Mention that you do not have to quit GDB to upload new compiled firmware. Just
-call `load` and `run` again.
