I think Espressif takes software fairly seriously, I really like ESP-IDF. As for Rust support, they're working on adding Xtensa support to LLVM [0] and someone has used it to build Rust [1].
It's not official support for Rust but it's official support for LLVM upon which Rust is based, which works too.

- dls2016 6y agoI'm new to the microcontroller world and am using ESP-IDF on the recommendation of a friend. Espressif's example code is pretty good! I was leaning towards STM32, but the ESP32 seems to do everything we need for now... pretty nice device for $5 or whatever.
- tlavoie 6y agoI'm also new, and picked ESP32 devices on recommendation of a colleague. I've had great fun, learning a ton to get going. Available libraries have certainly made the process much easier.
