I haven't use this controller. But many compilers support examples (simple in many cases) for various microcontroller families. Sometimes this is better, because you directly run a project and have some fun by changing the timing of a flashing LED etc. Just make sure to select the proper emulator from the project settings. If you are a begginer and try to start a project from the scratch, then you may find yourself struggling to find the proper settings of the compiler, in order to download and debug even the simplest code.
