Visit https://www.sifive.com/software/ and download Freedom Studio. Freedom Studio is an Eclipse integrated development environment (IDE)-based development suite with a complete set of tools for building a RISC-V application and running it on a hardware RISC-V processor or in the emulation environment included with Freedom Studio. Follow the instructions in the Freedom Studio User Manual to complete the installation. Start Freedom Studio and create a new Freedom E SDK project. In the project creation dialog, select qemu-sifive-u54 as the target (this is a single-core 64-bit RISC-V processor in the RV64GC configuration). Select the hello example program and click the Finish button. This will start a build of the example program and the RISC-V emulator. After the build completes, the Edit Configuration dialog box will appear. Click Debug to start the program in the emulator debug environment. Single-step through the program and verify that the text Hello, World! appears...
