## Getting started
 | 
			
		||||
This repository contains FreeRTOS kernel source/header files and kernel ports only. This repository is referenced as a submodule in [FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS](https://github.com/FreeRTOS/FreeRTOS) repository, which contains pre-configured demo application projects under ```FreeRTOS/Demo``` directory. 
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The easiest way to use FreeRTOS is to start with one of the pre-configured demo application projects.  That way you will have the correct FreeRTOS source files included, and the correct include paths configured.  Once a demo application is building and executing you can remove the demo application files, and start to add in your own application source files.  See the [FreeRTOS Kernel Quick Start Guide](https://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-quick-start-guide.html) for detailed instructions and other useful links.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Additionally, for FreeRTOS kernel feature information refer to the [Developer Documentation](https://www.freertos.org/features.html), and [API Reference](https://www.freertos.org/a00106.html).

## Repository structure
 | 
			
		||||
- The root of this repository contains the three files that are common to 
 | 
			
		||||
every port - list.c, queue.c and tasks.c.  The kernel is contained within these 
 | 
			
		||||
three files.  croutine.c implements the optional co-routine functionality - which
 | 
			
		||||
is normally only used on very memory limited systems.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- The ```./portable``` directory contains the files that are specific to a particular microcontroller and/or compiler. 
 | 
			
		||||
See the readme file in the ```./portable``` directory for more information.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- The ```./include``` directory contains the real time kernel header files.

 | 
			
		||||
components and are common to every port, and one or more files that are

specific to a particular microcontroller and or compiler.
