Astrobe V8.1.1 targeting Raspberry Pi RP2040

I'm asking for advice in order to program in Oberon and generate ARM Thumb instruction set code with the new Astrobe 8.1.1 for Raspberry Pi RP2040.
I'm using the Personal Free Edition, are there more target CPUs in the Configuration of the Astrobe Professional version? Or do I need to Edit one of them?

The Personal Edition has the same target configuration files as the Professional Edition. You can edit one of them and write suitable library code to try to target another Cortex-M0/M0+ device.
Once we have finished the latest versions (v9) of Astrobe for Cortex-M0, M3, M4 and M7 we plan to start working on the libraries and sample code for the Raspberry Pi RP2040. That looks likely to be early 2024 but there is nothing to stop you from developing for it yourself now. Indeed, one of our users has already developed an RP2040 version of Blinker without any assistance from us.
The RP2040 datasheet can be downloaded from here:
