Development Environment Requirements
The following software examples with the LaunchPad kit require an integrated development environment
(IDE) that supports the CC3200 device.
For more details on where to download the latest IDE, see
.
The CC3200 programmer's guide (
) has detailed information on software environment setup,
with examples. Refer to this document for further details on the software sample examples.
3.1.1
CCS
CCS 6.0 or higher is required. When CCS has been launched, and a workspace directory chosen, use
Project

Download a Development Environment
Although the files can be viewed with any text editor, more can be done with the projects if they are
opened with a
such as
,
, or Energia.
CCS and IAR are each available in a full version, or a free, code-size-limited version. The full out-of-box
demo cannot be built with the free version of CCS or IAR (IAR Kickstart), due to the code-size limit. To
bypass this limitation, a code-size-limited CCS version is provided that has most functionality integrated
into a library. The code built into the library is able to be viewed by the user, but it cannot be edited. For
full functionality, download the full version of either CCS or IAR.
