Make sure you have the the TTL to usb adapter connected to uart2 on the type-c

[link_to_page](3b7f0872-f00d-41cf-857e-646938c49bd0)

imports all the libraries that will be used

  #include "tap/board/board.hpp"
#include "drivers_singleton.hpp"
#include "tap/communication/serial/uart_terminal_device.hpp"// allows for printf

use namespace tap::communication::serial for ease of use

  using namespace tap::communication::serial;

get drivers and initialize the type-c

      src::Drivers *drivers = src::DoNotUse_getDrivers();  // gets the driver object
    Board::initialize();     // initialize the whole board

initialize the UartTerimalDevice object and IOStream object.

These two objects are what allow us to print through Uart2 on the type-c

      UartTerminalDevice ter(drivers);
    ter.initialize();
    modm::IOStream s(ter);

print “Hello world” and sleep for 500ms

  s.printf("Hello world\n"); // print hello world
modm::delay_ms(500);       // sleep for 500 ms

Code: 

  #include "tap/board/board.hpp"
#include "drivers_singleton.hpp"
#include "tap/communication/serial/uart_terminal_device.hpp"

using namespace tap::communication::serial;

int main(){
    src::Drivers *drivers = src::DoNotUse_getDrivers();// gets the driver object
    Board::initialize();     // intalize the whole board

    UartTerminalDevice ter(drivers);
    ter.initialize();
    modm::IOStream s(ter);

    while(true){
        s.printf("Hello world\n");
        modm::delay_ms(500);
    }
}

select the usb port the type-c is plugged in it should look like this:

if you don’t see the TTL to USB device on windows you need to install the drivers for it.
Follow the guide here to install the drivers: https://www.pololu.com/docs/0j7/all
