The STM32 MPU ecosystem proposes different graphical user interfaces frameworks (e.g., Qt™, GTK...).
Details about these GUIs and their main characteristics are available in the graphics on STM32 MPUs page on st.com (see also the STM32 for graphics presentation[1]).
This article aims to complement this information, either with links to the practical implementation of the solutions, or with links to partners' solutions.
1. GUIs supported per board and distribution[edit | edit source]
The following table lists the GUIs available for the embedded software distributions supported by each STM32 MPU lines.
Clicking on any 
of this table redirects either to the second table below to get links (mainly wiki articles) to the GUIs implementation, or to the list below of the ST partner pages on st.com. For the rows that have a icon in the last column of the first table ("via partners"), contact the partners for development and integration support.
