ChibiStudio is a pre-configured eclipse environment with some handy plugins. That's what is called an IDE (Integraded Development Environment). It's supposed to make your life as a developer easier by giving you some features like code completion, refactoring and all sorts of UI tools to debug your stuff such as stack analyzer and "click here"-breakpoints.
It's nothing vital you are forced to use, it can just make things easier for you (for instance, I don't use it and do everything bare metal).

Note that the current ChibiStudio only works on windows.

Hi,

ChibiStudio is a free development environment, it contains everything is required to have a ChibiOS application working on a board in minutes. It also includes ChibiOS and all its demos.

ChibiStudio is the fastest way to get the development tools installed and quit messing with the tool and start working on your project!

ChibiStudio ROCKS!!!!

Oh yes... It also includes Chibios/RT :P :P
