Hi,
I have just read the blog at
Arm takes Embedded Software Development to the next level with introduction of Keil MDK Version 6
where it states that
"Along with newly introduced host support for Windows, Linux, and macOS,MDK Version 6 continues to include the proven µVision IDE for Windows and features for functional safety."
As I am running a Linux based system, from where can I download a free/community edition of MDK 6 ?

It is installed as a (set of) VS Code Extensions, that you can download from the marketplace (within VS Code):

It should install a community license automatically, else see the instructions here:

Good morning Mr Synnott,
Thank you for such a swift reply. In that case maybe now would be a good time to install VS Codium.
Good morning Mr Synnot,
VS Codium and MDK v6 have now been installed. As I will be using an old Stm32F407VGT6 Discovery board in order to start my familiarity with this toolchain, how do I now add in the STM32F4 Pack to VS Codium/MDK v6 set up ?
