This is a concise, step by step, 'hands on' tutorial guide that describes both general multitasking concepts and FreeRTOS specifics. It presents and explains numerous examples that are written using the FreeRTOS API.
The PIC32 edition includes eighteen examples written specifically for the PIC32 using the free MPLAB C Compiler for PIC32 MCUs and the free MPLAB IDE. The projects target the low cost PIC32 USB Starter Kit II (Microchip part number DM320003-2) development board with a PIC32MX795F512L-80I/PT microcontroller (80 MHz, 512K Flash, 128K RAM, USB Host/Device/OTG, Dual CAN, and more).
Note - This book is a step by step 'hands on' guide. It does not contain a complete API reference. An API reference manual is available in pdf format from http://www.freertos.org/Documentation.
