I wish to apply FreeRTOS to an NXP LPC1769 dev board, in MCUXpresso using GCC.

Here:
https://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-Plus/FreeRTOS_Plus_IO/Demo_Applications/LPCXpresso_LPC1769/NXP_LPC1769_Demo_Description.shtml

The NXP demo board LPC1768 is described, which would be adaptable to my 1769 board. BUT, in the FreeRTOS 10.2.0 source (downloaded today) I find only demos:
…\Demo\CORTEX_LPC1768_GCC_RedSuite
…\Demo\CORTEX_LPC1768_GCC_Rowley
…\Demo\CORTEX_LPC1768_IAR

Where is my error? Or, is the FreeRTOS source download missing the described demos? Or does the Supported Devices & Demos page need to be updated? LPC1769, or even just CM3, demo code not related to a specific board would be welcome, if such a thing exists.

The code that goes with the docs on that page is a separate download,
linked to from the same page, but its very old code:

Thanks Richard - solved.

I was following:
“1. Obtaining the RTOS source code:
Download the FreeRTOS .zip file. This contains the RTOS kernel source code and demo projects for every official port.”
But there are ifs, ands, and buts and one must read everything to get them all. Why would the source you pointed to not be included in FreeRTOS .zip? Is it not an “official port”? This will help me to understand the source repos.
