Thanks Steve!
- steveklabnik 6y agoYou're welcome! We have a Windows working group that does far more work than I do; honestly, I mostly am just a visible person who uses Windows, more than an expert or someone who fixes a lot of big problems. I do file bugs and patch things where I can.
- brundolf 6y agoPersonally I used to think I couldn't develop comfortably on Windows, but Rust's tooling is so integrated under the Cargo umbrella that I've never run into a real issue getting it working there, and I rarely even find myself needing to do "real command-line" stuff while working with Rust. A single tool has it all covered, so I don't really have to write scripts or anything. I'm sure the story is less simple for embedded, but I'm not surprised it's totally doable.
- steveklabnik 6y agoIt's not that far off for embedded; Cargo's weaknesses here affect all platforms equally :)
