connecting STM32 with Pycharm through serial at backend.

[RachnaSoni]

Hello! 

i'm new to stm32 programming. i have been trying to connect stm32 nucleo 142zg board to a GUI. the GUI is made in pycharm using Tkinter library to control PWM signal coming as output from stm32 board. I'm planning to connect stm32cubeIDE and pycharm from backend using serial library. please help me out how i can do it. so far i have made the GUI which gets connected to stm32. it acknowledges the stm board. i just have to figure out stm32 part. 

any help with youtube videos, steps to implement it, etc is very much appretiated.

thank you!

Do you have experience with any other microcontroller(s) ?

This would be a good starting point:

So the first thing to do is to get basic UART comms working.

Forget about the "pycharm" to start with - just work with a serial terminal.

Having got the basic UART transmission working, you might want to link it to the standard C printf:

AIUI, PyCharm is an IDE PyCharm: the Python IDE for data science and web development - yes?

And STM32CubeIDE is certainly an IDE - it's in the name!

So what do you mean by "connecting" these two IDEs together?

Presumably, you mean connecting together the two apps created using these IDEs - yes?
