NUCLEO WL55JC1
This board uses a dual core STM32WL55JC MCU which contains both a Cortex-M4 and Cortex-M0+ CPU.
Two demo boards exist, the JC1 and JC2. The former is for high band RF and the latter low band RF.

Software
Software available for this board depends on a proprietary IDE and doesn't support GNU Make or cmake out of the box.
There are two version of the support package. One contains proprietary source code and is dated, the other only free to use source code and is maintained and kept up to date.
1.3.0
This version contains proprietary source files and requires an ST login to download.
Extract
unzip en.stm32cubewl-v1-3-0.zip
Github
Source code on github is maintained but lacks proprietary code. See the README section for a list of features removed.
Checkout
git clone --recursive https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STM32CubeWL.git
Update
git pull git submodule update --init --recursive

Application
Checkout the software package from github into the STM32CubeMX project directory as STM32CubeWL
Create the LoRAWAN end node demo.
- Open STM32CubeMX
- Go to Load project
- Navigate to STM32CubeWL/Projects/NUCLEO-WL55JC/Applications/LoRaWAN/LoRaWAN_End_Node
- Open LoRaWAN_End_Node.ioc
- Go to Project Manager
- Change toolchain to Makefile
- Change MCU and Firmware Location to the checkout directory STM32CubeWL
- Setup LoRaWAN commissioning
- Generate code (ignore message about Platform settings)
At this point the project can be built using `make'
