# STM32F103C8 Examples
Example C code for the STM32F103C8 microcontrollers implemented with libopencm3. This repository is based on the [template project](https://github.com/libopencm3/libopencm3-template) for libopencm3.
+
+
+## Recommended Toolchain
+
+The toolchain described in this section is recommended to try out the software of this repository.
+
+### The Target: STM32 Blue Pill Board
+
+The STM32 Blue Pill board is based on the STM32F103C8 microcontroller. Because of the very low price it is an ideal board to try out the software of this repository.
+
+### The Debugger/Programmer: Black Magic Probe
+
+To program the target microcontroller you have to use a suitable programmer. A good choice could be the [Black Magic Probe](https://1bitsquared.com/products/black-magic-probe) (BMP). It has a built-in GDB server and serial debugger.
