$ sudo tar xfj gcc-arm-none-eabi-8-2018-q4-major-linux.tar.bz2 -C /usr/local
$ PATH=/usr/local/gcc-arm-none-eabi-8-2018-q4-major/bin:$PATH
$ sudo apt install -y dfu-util

$ cd tinySA
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
Just make in the directory.

Using this docker image and without installing arm toolchain, you can build the firmware.
$ cd tinySA
$ docker run -it --rm -v $(PWD):/work edy555/arm-embedded:8.2 make
First, make device enter DFU mode by one of following methods.
- Jumper BOOT0 pin at powering device
- Select menu Config->DFU (needs recent firmware)
Then, flash firmware using dfu-util via USB.
$ dfu-util -d 0483:df11 -a 0 -s 0x08000000:leave -D build/ch.bin
Or simply use make.
$ make flash
There are several numbers of great companion PC tools from third-party.
