I got one of these cheap STM8 boards from China and was hoping to find a way to use this with arduino code.
Does anyone know of an arduino boot loader and board package that works with them ?

you get nothing with these links !!!! – modou Oct 14 '20 at 12:29
Start the Arduino-IDE. In File->Preferences, Settings tab, enter
https://github.com/tenbaht/sduino/raw/master/package_sduino_stm8_index.json
Open Tools->Board:...->Boards Manager
Find Sduino by typing 'sd' into the search line
Click on the list entry
Click on Install.
This link is more comprehensive
There is a bootloader on those chips to slow serial programming. A much easier way to to get a stlink debugger.
There are also some packages that allow Arduino styled programming on those chips. I wrote one myself that runs on iar and I think at least one on sdcc.
Those chips are really nice.

Hi, thanks for your reply. So how would I get started with programming this in the arduino IDE? There is a whole community around the STM32 and it's use with the arduino IDE, I followed some simple instructions from stm32duino.com to get going with the stm32. Is there an equivalent with this STM8 board? – juliusbangert Aug 30 '17 at 20:14

Not to my knowledge, unfortunately. The stm32duino site has links to my stm8duino port on GitHub if you wish to try. It does require the iar workbench however . – dannyf Aug 30 '17 at 20:22
