Additional Information

 

Getting Started

The Getting Started View provides quick access to a number of common actions such as creating a new project or browsing examples. For users who wish to use a very clean user interface, Code Composer Studio has a "simple" mode which trims down the environment to just the essential functionality. Once comfortable with the environment it is easy to switch back to standard mode to expose more advanced capabilities.

Resource Explorer

Resource Explorer is a tool that is available inside of Code Composer Studio as well as in the cloud.  It enables browsing through software and documentation in the cloud that are applicable to the device being used.  When exploring a software package is is possible to drill down and see the source code.  Once the appropriate example is identified the software package can be downloaded and the example imported into Code Composer Studio.  

Optimizer Assistant

The Optimizer Assistant helps obtain the best possible performance while staying within code size constraints.
