 @brief       Support for the STM32 Nucleo-L053R8
+
+## Overview
+
+The Nucleo-L053R8 is a board from ST's Nucleo family supporting a ARM
+Cortex-M0+ STM32L053R8 microcontroller with 8KiB of RAM and 32KiB of Flash.
+
+## Flashing the Board Using ST-LINK Removable Media
+
+On-board ST-LINK programmer provides via composite USB device removable media.
+Copying the HEX file causes reprogramming of the board. This task
+could be performed manually; however, the cpy2remed (copy to removable
+media) PROGRAMMER script does this automatically. To program board in
+this manner, use the command:
+
+```
+make BOARD=nucleo-l053r8 PROGRAMMER=cpy2remed flash
+```
+
+@note This PROGRAMMER was tested using ST-LINK firmware 2.37.26. Firmware updates
+could be found on [this STM webpage](https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stsw-link007.html).
