<!-- GETTING STARTED -->
## Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.

### Prerequisites

* A [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) toolchain

### Installation

1. Clone the repo or use the crate

   ```sh
   git clone https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal
   ```

   or

   ```sh
   cargo install rpXXXX-hal
   ```

<!-- USAGE EXAMPLES -->
## Usage

Use this space to show useful examples of how a project can be used. Additional screenshots, code examples and demos work well in this space. You may also link to more resources.

For more examples, please refer to the [Documentation](https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal)

### Run examples

#### UF2

For boards with uf2 flashloaders like the raspberry pi pico. Install [`elf2uf2-rs`](https://github.com/JoNil/elf2uf2-rs):

```sh
cargo install elf2uf2-rs
```

Make sure .cargo/config contains the following (it should by default):

```toml
runner = "elf2uf2-rs -d"
```

**IMPORTANT: Make sure you've put your device into bootloader mode and the drive is showing as mounted before executing the next command.**

```sh
cargo run --example pico_pwm_blink # Run `cargo run --example` for more examples
```

<!-- ROADMAP -->
## Roadmap

NOTE This HAL is under active development. As such, it is likely to remain volatile until a 1.0.0 release.

See the [open issues](https://github.com/rp-rs/rp-hal/issues) for a list of proposed features (and known issues).
