It has a set of Arduino compatible sockets where you can plug in an
Arduino Peripheral board, there is also an Arduino development
software package available for it. I will not be using the Arduino
software but instead use software I'm comfortable with. I have my own
C, Pascal, and FORTH compilers for ARM.
You need to read the information on the ST site as it explains it in
detail. The price is right, it's less that $11 for an ARM F4
development board with 512K of Flash and Arduino compatibility, not
bad at all. I will be buying a bunch of them as soon as I can get some money.
