+Directories:

++ FreeRTOS/source contains the FreeRTOS real time kernel source code.

+

++ FreeRTOS/demo contains a pre-configured demo project for every official 

+  FreeRTOS port.

+  

++ FreeRTOS-Plus contains additional FreeRTOS components and third party 

+  complementary products.  THESE ARE LICENSED SEPARATELY FROM FreeRTOS although

+  all contain open source options.  See the license files in each respective

+  directory for information.

+  

++ FreeRTOS-Plus/Demo_Projects_Using_FreeRTOS_Simulator contains pre-configured

+  demo projects for the FreeRTOS-Plus components.  The demo projects run in

+  a Windows environment using the FreeRTOS windows simulator.  These are 

+  documented on the FreeRTOS web site http://www.FreeRTOS.org/plus

+

++ See http://www.freertos.org/a00017.html for full details of the directory 

+  structure and information on locating the files you require.

+

+Further readme files are contains in sub-directories as appropriate.

+  

+The easiest way to use FreeRTOS is to start with one of the pre-configured demo 

+application projects (found in the FreeRTOS/Demo directory).  That way you will

+have the correct FreeRTOS source files included, and the correct include paths

+configured.  Once a demo application is building and executing you can remove

+the demo application file, and start to add in your own application source

+files.
