Hello MimmoA
I have no background in electrical engineering or programming. I was given a GUIDE license and was told to figure it out. It has been quite some time but I am certainly getting the hang of it. You are able to program all day long without having any physical hardware, you just will not be able to compile it onto anything. Which doesn't really help you out much! It is much easier getting the project file into a piece of hardware and using the service tool to check your work. I wish you the best of luck! I have needed much luck and used this site as a resource on many occasion.
