I had a similar experience writing image decompressors. There wasn't enough to internally manage for rust to provide any benefit, and the gritty fast algorithmic code is just simpler to do with C++. C wasn't going to get me the fl

This could be plain software on any computer with network and a serial port. Not sure if the product is tied to RP hardware but it certainly wouldn't have to be. I work with thermal printers controlled by significantly less powerful ha

I find this kind of thing most useful for microcontrollers and real-time embedded systems that don't require full networking. I've used many of these concepts but maybe not all at once on what many would call "bare metal&quot
