CrossStudio allows you to organize your collection of projects into a workspace or solution. We provide a number of project templates for popular evaluation and demonstration boards with the product which you can use as a springboard to start your application development. A project is typically organized into groups, where each group gathers together files that are related—for example, header files, source files, and documentation files can all have their own group in a project.
This section will take you through creating, compiling, and debugging a simple application using the build-in simulator to prepare you for starting your own projects using CrossStudio.
