Keil Studio Cloud is a big step up from the Online Compiler, bringing much better code hinting/IntelliSense, comprehensive git source control integration and direct development board interaction from the browser. It’s also where many of you learned to write C++ for microcontrollers thanks to wide adoption for university teaching. Since then, the Online Compiler has been used by hundreds of thousands of developers around the world, and many embedded products have started life there. The Mbed team first released a browser-based IDE in 2010, making it quicker and easier to write software for Arm based microcontrollers.

Introducing Keil Studio Cloud, the successor to the Mbed Online Compiler Read on for details on timeline, migration steps and further information on hardware support. Keil Studio Cloud is the natural successor to the Online Compiler, which we will be phasing out.

Documentation for Keil Studio Cloud is available on Arm’s developer website. You can access Keil Studio Cloud at using your Mbed account. Keil Studio Cloud builds on technology that we have developed for Mbed Studio and the Mbed Online Compiler, with the aim to provide an easy-to-use rapid prototyping environment that can be used for IoT, ML and general embedded development. It’s free to use, comes with a powerful, modern editor and as the name suggests, supports the wider Arm CMSIS microcontroller ecosystem, as well as Mbed OS. Earlier this year, Arm announced the open beta of Keil Studio Cloud, our new browser-based IDE.
