We wrote a news about STM32F746 discovery and IDE by openstm32.org on the google+.
https://time4ee.com/ got development board STM32F7 discovery by ST.
We want to show MULTIPLATFORM (Linux - Ubuntu, Windows) development tools by http://openstm32.org

Other tutorials with STM32F7:
Tutorial: STM32F746 (STM32F7 Discovery) - how to turn on/off LED by button
Tutorial: STM32F746 (STM32F7 Discovery) - how to turn on LED (controlling GPIO)
STM32F746 discovery and AC6 (System Workbench for STM32)
How to begin with STM32 and why - tutorial

Start with development tools for STM32
It based on Eclipse and all development tools are open-source.
The speed of compile is very fast because Eclipse doesn't have unnecessary addition.
The instalation is witout a problem. You have to choice place where will be instalation (default home user file). Then you will choice where will be your projects and that is all.
Install file is on the website openstm32.org, but you have to be log in. the registration is free.
It's for windows version.
If you want to create your projects on linux (is supported only Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04 LTS, but I tried on Linux Mint 17 and 17.2 and i didn't have a problem), you have to write e-mail for log in to beta tester. You will get confirmation e-mail and then you can download *.run installation file.
You have to set the file as executable (properties of file).
It's beta version, but I don't have a problem.

Icons are same as clasic version of Eclipse.
