+# Blinky Mbed OS example
 
-This guide reviews the steps required to get Blinky with the addition of dynamic OS statistics working on an Mbed OS platform. (Note: To see a rendered example you can import into the Arm Online Compiler, please see our [quick start](https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/latest/quick-start/online-with-the-online-compiler.html#importing-the-code).)
+The example project is part of the [Arm Mbed OS Official Examples](https://os.mbed.com/code/) and is the [getting started example for Mbed OS](https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/v5.14/quick-start/index.html). It contains an application that repeatedly blinks an LED on supported [Mbed boards](https://os.mbed.com/platforms/).
 
-Please install [Mbed CLI](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-cli#installing-mbed-cli).
+You can build the project with all supported [Mbed OS build tools](https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/latest/tools/index.html). However, this example project specifically refers to the command-line interface tool [Arm Mbed CLI](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-cli#installing-mbed-cli).
+(Note: To see a rendered example you can import into the Arm Online Compiler, please see our [import quick start](https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/latest/quick-start/online-with-the-online-compiler.html#importing-the-code).)
 
-## Import the example application
+1. [Install Mbed CLI](https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/latest/quick-start/offline-with-mbed-cli.html).
 
-From the command-line, import the example:
+1. Clone this repository on your system, and change the current directory to where the project was cloned:
 
-```
-mbed import mbed-os-example-blinky
-cd mbed-os-example-blinky
-```
+    ```bash
+    $ git clone [email protected]:armmbed/mbed-os-example-blinky && cd mbed-os-example-blinky
+    ```
 
-### Now compile
-
-Invoke `mbed compile`, and specify the name of your platform and your favorite toolchain (`GCC_ARM`, `ARM`, `IAR`). For example, for the Arm Compiler:
-
-```
-mbed compile -m K64F -t ARM
-```
-
-Your PC may take a few minutes to compile your code. At the end, you see the following result:
-
-```
-[snip]
-
-Image: ./BUILD/K64F/GCC_ARM/mbed-os-example-blinky.bin
-```
-
-### Program your board
-
-1. Connect your Mbed device to the computer over USB.
-1. Copy the binary file to the Mbed device.
-1. Press the reset button to start the program.
-
-The LED on your platform turns on and off. The main thread will additionally take a snapshot of the device's runtime statistics and display it over serial to your PC. The snapshot includes:
-
-* System Information:
-    * Mbed OS Version: Will currently default to 999999
-    * Compiler ID
-        * ARM = 1
-        * GCC_ARM = 2
-        * IAR = 3
-    * [CPUID Register Information](#cpuid-register-information)
-    * [Compiler Version](#compiler-version)
-* CPU Statistics
-    * Percentage of runtime that the device has spent awake versus in sleep
-* Heap Statistics
-    * Current heap size
-    * Max heap size which refers to the largest the heap has grown to
-* Thread Statistics
-    * Provides information on all running threads in the OS including
-        * Thread ID
-        * Thread Name
-        * Thread State
-        * Thread Priority
-        * Thread Stack Size
-        * Thread Stack Space

-
-### Output
-
-To view the serial output you can use any terminal client of your choosing such as [PuTTY](http://www.putty.org/) or [CoolTerm](http://freeware.the-meiers.org/). Unless otherwise specified, printf defaults to a baud rate of 9600 on Mbed OS.
-
-You can find more information on the Mbed OS configuration tools and serial communication in Mbed OS in the related [related links section](#related-links).
-
-The output should contain the following block transmitted at the blinking LED frequency (actual values may vary depending on your target, build profile, and toolchain):
-
-```

+    Alternatively, you can download the example project with Arm Mbed CLI using the `import` subcommand:
 
-## Troubleshooting
+    ```bash
+    $ mbed import mbed-os-example-blinky && cd mbed-os-example-blinky
+    ```
+
+
+## Application functionality
+
+The `main()` function is the single thread in the application. It toggles the state of a digital output connected to an LED on the board.
+
+## Building and running
+
+1. Connect a USB cable between the USB port on the board and the host computer.
+2. <a name="build_cmd"></a> Run the following command to build the example project and program the microcontroller flash memory:
+    ```bash
+    $ mbed compile -m <TARGET> -t <TOOLCHAIN> --flash
+    ```
+The binary is located at `./BUILD/<TARGET>/<TOOLCHAIN>/mbed-os-example-blinky.bin`.
 
+Alternatively, you can manually copy the binary to the board, which you mount on the host computer over USB.
+
+Depending on the target, you can build the example project with the `GCC_ARM`, `ARM` or `IAR` toolchain. After installing Arm Mbed CLI, run the command below to determine which toolchain supports your target:
+
+    ```bash
+    $ mbed compile -S
+    ```
+
+## Expected output
+The LED on your target turns on and off every 500 milliseconds.
+
+
+## Troubleshooting
 If you have problems, you can review the [documentation](https://os.mbed.com/docs/latest/tutorials/debugging.html) for suggestions on what could be wrong and how to fix it.
