After discovering Adafruit's Feather !STM32F405 for myself, I wanted to develop a Feather board for the !STM32WB. Luckily I found the !STM32WB Feather Development Board from [[https://www.reclaimerlabs.com/stm32wb-feather][Reclaimer Labs]]. This board has everything I need. 

Instant real-time programming with Forth.

---+  Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local 
machine (!STM32WB Feather Developer Board) for development and testing purposes. 

---++ Prerequisites

   * [[https://www.reclaimerlabs.com/stm32wb-feather][STM32WB Feather Development Board]] Stackable Feather board with !STM32WB55 MCU (Cortex ARM M4) runs at a 32 MHz (the Bluetooth stack runs on a Cortex ARM M0+ core). If you want to debug C and assembler programs you need an ST-Link debugger/programmer.
   * Terminal emulator application for PC, e.g.: 
      * [[http://www.putty.org/][PuTTY]] - Windows and Linux
      * [[http://en.sourceforge.jp/projects/ttssh2/][Tera Term]] - Windows
      * [[http://realterm.sourceforge.net/][Realterm]] - Windows
      * minicom, microcom, screen - Linux
      * Use the built in Eclipse console (but no LF)
 
Flash the Mecrisp-Cube [[https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube/raw/WBfeather/Release/MecrispCubeWBfeather.bin][binary]] (=MecrispCubeWBfeather.bin=) or the [[https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube/raw/WBfeather/sdcard/boot/MecrispCubeWBfeatherUtil.bin][util-binary]] (=MecrispCubeWBfeatherUtil.bin=) to the Feather Board.

   1. Connect the Feather Board USB to the PC
   2. Hold the USR button (BOOTP Pin), push the RES button, release the USR button
   3. Program the binary (=MecrispCubeWBfeather.bin= or =MecrispCubeWBfeatherUtil.bin=) with the !STMCubeProgrammer (select USB Device) 
   4. Reset or power cycle the Feather board 

Start the terminal emulator application on the PC. 
Check for the serial communication port (e.g. for Linux =/dev/ttyACM0=).
I set the putty terminal configuration to 

   * Implicit CR in every LF 
   * Local echo: Auto
   * Local line editing: Auto
   * Keyboard Backspace: Control-H
   * Keyboard Function: Keys VT100
   * Remote character set: CP850

---++ Special Functions on Startup 
[[TerminalIO#USB_CDC_Serial_Communication_API][USB-CDC]] is the default console.
   $ *Button 1*: [[TerminalIO#BLE_Cable_Replacement_Serial_Com][CRS]] (Bluetooth Cable Replacement Service) is standard console
   $ *Button 2*: [[TerminalIO#UART_Serial_Communication_API][UART]] is standard console
   $ *Button 3*: ignore =/etc/rc.local=
   $ *Button USR*: start STM bootloader
   $ *red LED*: the LED lights up during the initialization phase

---++ Neopixel as Status Indicator
The optional NeoPixel displays the status
   $ *dimmed Green*: USB enumeration successfull
   $ *dimmed Blue*: BLE connected
   $ *flashing Red*: "disk" (serial flash or SD) write operation
   $ *flashing Yellow*: "disk" (serial flash or SD) read operation


---++ Additional Tools and Local Filesystem
Populate a microSD with the contents of [[https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube/tree/WBfeather/sdcard][sdcard]]. Put the microSD into the uSD Card slot and reset or power cycle the board.

The directory should look like this:
<pre>
<b>ls -l 1:[CR]</b>
drw-         0 2021-04-18T18:12:38 boot
drw-         0 2021-03-21T18:47:52 etc
drw-         0 2021-03-21T18:47:54 fsr
drw-         0 2021-03-21T18:47:54 home
drw-         0 2021-03-21T18:47:56 man
-rwa      7219 2021-01-08T19:42:36 README.md
ok.
</pre>

You can use the local CLI commands like =mkfs=, =mkdir= and =cp= to create a filesystem on the serial flash and fill it with files and folders. But this is tedious job because I haven't yet implemented a recursive copy for !MecrispCube. But there is prepared disk image 
(for details see MicroSdBlocks#Serial_Flash) on microSD and the tool =dd=. You can copy the disk image to the drive 0: (this takes about 8 Minutes):
<pre>
<b>dd 1:/boot/fd-16MiB.img 0:[CR]</b>
 ok.
<b>mount 0:[CR]</b>
 ok.
<b>ls 0:[CR]</b>
man                     fsr                     README.md               boot
etc                     home
 ok.
</pre>

The Mecrisp have some tools bundled in its distribution e.g. assembler, disassembler, dump, float. I put those tools and some more into the folder =/fsr=. With the "init.fs script" I compile my favorite ones into the flash directory (if you use the [[https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube/raw/WBfeather/sdcard/boot/MecrispCubeWBfeatherUtil.bin][util-binary]] binary, these tools are already compiled in):
<pre>
<b>compiletoflash[CR]</b>  ok.
<b>include /etc/init.fs[CR]</b>
init.fs Loading started
RAM Dictionary: 392991 KiB
utils.fs loading ...
conditional.fs loading ...
dump.fs loading ...
disassembler-m3.fs loading ...
float.fs loading ...
threads.fs loading ...
RAM Dictionary: 392981 KiB
init.fs finished  ok.
</pre>

For example, the word disassember is available now:
<pre>
<b>see dump[CR]</b>
080405F0: B500  push { lr }
080405F2: F7C2  bl  08002A3E  --> cr
080405F4: FA24
080405F6: CF08  ldmia r7 { r3 }
080405F8: F013  ands r2 r3 #F
080405FA: 020F
080405FC: F847  str r3 [ r7 #-4 ]!
080405FE: 3D04
08040600: 2A00  cmp r2 #0
08040602: D000  beq 08040606
08040604: 3610  adds r6 #10
08040606: CF08  ldmia r7 { r3 }
08040608: F847  str r6 [ r7 #-4 ]!
</pre>

---+ Installing

A step by step series of examples that tell you how to get a development env running

Install the IDE [[https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubeide.html][STM32CubeIDE]], 
it is Eclipse and GCC based. 
[[https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubemx.html][STM32CubeMX]]
is included in the IDE, you need a stand alone installation only if 
you do not want to use the !STM32CubeIDE.  

Get the sources from github:

<pre>
psi@homer:~> <b>git clone --branch WBfeather https://github.com/spyren/Mecrisp-Cube</b>
