If I want to run the [HTTPS demo](https://www.freertos.org/https/preconfiguredexamples.html#functionality) on the RISC-V board that I have, do I just run the same steps through Freedom Studio instead of Visual Studio?

Hello @AvraSaslow,

Thanks for the question. You will have port the HTTP demo from the IOT libraries. The source code description for HTTP demo can be found here:

> **[HTTPS Client Preconfigured Examples (Without TLS) - FreeRTOS](https://www.freertos.org/https/preconfiguredexamples.html)**
>
> NOTE: The HTTPS library and documentation are part of the FreeRTOS LTS Roadmap. These libraries are fully functional, but undergoing optimizations or refactoring to improve memory usage, modularity, documentation, demo usability, or test...

  
You will need HTTP library and other abstractions files shown in the picture to compile the library.

You will probably also need to port IP stack and guide for that can be found here :

> **[Porting FreeRTOS+TCP to Different Embedded Platforms](https://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-Plus/FreeRTOS_Plus_TCP/FreeRTOS_TCP_Porting.html)**
>
> Links to pages that describe how to port FreeRTOS+TCP to different embedded platforms

Please feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.

Are you planning use plaintext or TLS ?  
Thanks !
