The SDK builds an executable that is bare metal and runs independently on RP2040. CMakeList files used in Raspberry Pi Pico SDK and projects define how applications are configured and built. CMake is widely supported by IDEs (Integrated Development Environments) and allows a simple specification of the build (via CMakeLists.txt files), from which CMake can generate a build system ( make ) customized for the platform. The Raspberry Pi Pico SDK uses CMake to manage the build. The SDK also has examples to help get started with basic functionality and hardware interfacing. The SDK provides higher-level libraries for dealing with timers, USB, synchronization, and multi-core programming, along with additional high-level functionality built using PIO. The Raspberry Pi Pico SDK (Software Development Kit), provides the headers, libraries, and build system necessary to write programs for the RP2040 based devices such as the Raspberry Pi Pico in C, C++, or assembly language. Add path to environment variable and add registry information.
