Hi all,
As a C++ programmer I would like to start using it in the embedded world. For that I wish to be familiar with a popular IDE on which I can write projects for ARM-based MCUs, from different vendors, be it of ST or others, and get help when running across a problem.
I've some titles in mind such as: IAR and Keil. What are your ideas, please?
Thanks.

Errr ... the clue is in the name:
IIRC, You originally posted in the 'Simulation Models' forum - which was definitely wrong
Hello Ary,
I have asked the community owner to move the thread, as your original forum was definitely not the right place. Unfortunately, we have no generic IDE forum, so I think that this is the best one you can get for the moment. But we can also move it to the general "Embedded" forum.
Regarding a test drive with Keil MDK, I'd suggest to download the latest version (v5.34) and either try the MDK-Lite version (free, 32 kB code size max) or test the MDK-Professional version by getting a 30-day trial license here: https://www.keil.com/MDKEvaluationRequest/.
Kind regards,
Christopher

I think that would be the best place - as it's not specific to Keil.

"Yes, please do that."Still I'm not sure about the IDEs to select one between them. I appreciate your point of view about things that are important for me and your suggestion on Keil, but I like to hear different people's perspectives too, those who are embedded programmers and have experienced the IDEs all. That's why the Embedded forum was chosen by me first. I will ask my upcoming questions in the Keil forum if I choose that IDE for my purposes.

But only the ones that are actually about the IDE / toolchain.
Again:
