The plan is to build a custom industrial-like controller, and to use a 32 bit microcontroller as the brains. An idea crossed my mind that it would be nice to have the option to program it using LD or FBD (like a PLC), in order to make it easier to program for an electrical engineer, and make it easier for maintenance. All of this is currently just an idea, due to lack of free time because of my regular job.
I don't know if this is a thing, but I was wondering if it was possible to use codesys to program an STM32, like I would program a PLC. On the website (https://www.codesys.com/products/codesys-runtime/runtime-toolkit.html), it says that STM32 is supported, but does that mean that I could just plug a programmer into my laptop, open codesys and start programming, or would I need some additional firmware, and/or external components? If it is possible, has anyone tried it so far?
