i'm not a Rust-er but I hope this really takes off
after trying to switch to Basic, then Embedded Lua, then MicroPython, then TinyGo... I keep coming back to putting together microcontroller code in C/++, every time
if even one language can break the barrier, there's hope :)
- kennywinker 5y agoSince I was mostly complaining, it might not sound like it - but I think that embedded Rust has arrived, for some MCUs. If there is good support for your chosen chip / dev board - there's no need to wait around for it to take off. You can even link C/C++ code if you need to use a library that doesn't have a rust equivalent.
- elcritch 5y agoNim works rather well too on pretty much any MCU that can run C. I even tried Forth for a while myself. I’m glad Rust is making progress too, but it seems limited on MCU support.
