Creating a blinky application using mbed baremetal using Mbed Studio
Blinking an LED is the equivalent to "Hello World" when testing a programming language on general purpose computers. We will be using Mbed Studio for this exercise. Note that Mbed Studio will be sunset on July 2026, so only use this for fun and not for profit.Pre-requisite:
