+
+Basic Thread Example
+####################
+
+Overview
+********
+
+This example demonstrates spawning multiple threads using
+:c:func:`K_THREAD_DEFINE`. It spawns three threads. Each thread is then defined
+at compile time using `K_THREAD_DEFINE`.
+
+These three each control an LED. These LEDs, ``LED_BUILTIN``, ``D10`` and ``D11``, have
+loop control and timing logic controlled by separate functions.
+
+- ``blink0()`` controls ``LED_BUILTIN`` and has a 100ms sleep cycle
+- ``blink1()`` controls ``D11`` and has a 1000ms sleep cycle
+- ``loop()`` controls ``D10`` and has a 300ms sleep cycle
+
+Requirements
+************
+
+The board must have two LEDs connected via GPIO pins and one builtin LED. These are called "User
+LEDs" on many of Zephyr's :ref:`boards`. The LEDs must be mapped using the `<board_name_pinmap.h>`
+``LED_BUILTIN``, ``D10`` and ``D11`` to the :ref:`devicetree <dt-guide>` aliases, in the
+variants folder.
+
+You will see one of these errors if you try to build this sample for an
+unsupported board:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+   Unsupported board: LED_BUILTIN devicetree alias is not defined
+   Unsupported board: D11 devicetree alias is not defined
+
+Building
+********
+
+For example, to build this sample for :ref:`arduino_nano_33_ble`:
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/basic/arduino-threads
+   :board: arduino_nano_33_ble
+   :goals: build flash
+   :compact:
+
+Change ``arduino_nano_33_ble`` appropriately for other supported boards.
