Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Rust in Automotive
It’s definitely used for “nonsafety” stuff like infotainment. The ATSAMD HAL/PACs are probably the most complete embedded microcontroller family as far as Rust support goes, and that’s a part with heavy intent toward automotive use.

Looking for a highly resource constrained target to run Rust on. Any ideas?
The Rust ATSAMD community has been very helpful getting me going. I've really become fond of RTIC as a way to get a little structure in my programs.
- Code Rust in Aurdino??

Are there any ways to use rust for the Arduino MKR WiFi 1010?
The atsamd-rs rust folks (https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd) have made this way easier! Check out my top level comment!

Hello, Microcontroller! Intro to video codecs and the "hello, world" of microcontrollers implemented in ~100 lines of dependency-free Rust
I'm obviously biased, but as a starting point I would recommend getting an Arduino and following the process in the article. Once you have a blinking LED, try it again using a HAL like atsamd-rs/atsamd. Then try making it more complex: configure the clock and replace the delay implementation with something that takes a proper duration argument, add serial IO via the USB port so you can communicate with your program as it runs, connect some more LEDs or buttons and interact with them, or make some network requests.

Writing embedded firmware using Rust
The embedded-hal project supplies these for a wide variety of controllers, for SAMD specifically, https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd .

First steps with Embedded Rust: Selecting a board
No love for Microchip nee Atmel? https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd

Want to Learn Programming and Microcontrollers?
Am admittedly too inexperienced to properly weigh the pros and cons of various platforms, but I find the Rust support for certain embedded platforms to be particularly compelling.
https://github.com/atsamd-rs/atsamd
I have at least managed to get some literal blinkenlights doing what I want on various Adafruit boards with very little effort.
- I’d like to learn rust to make a USB device that enumerates as a mouse to the OS and shakes the pointer every once in a while. I’m a web developer by trade. How realistic is this project?

OxidOS Automotive
Hi! This is Daniel from OxidOS Automotive (stating this for disclaimer purposes).
Yes, our OS is based on TockOS, and our CEO (Alex Radovici) is #7 in the contributors list (https://github.com/tock/tock/graphs/contributors), with other colleagues contributing in the past years.

Safety vs. Performance. A case study of C, C++ and Rust sort implementations
I'm definitely not the best person to answer this, but honestly it's not bad. Here's an example of a moderately complex peripheral, the cortex-m MPU, and how one rust OS handles it:
https://github.com/tock/tock/blob/3a0527d586702b8ae8cb242391...
Reads and writes turn into volatile reads, so everything works out under the hood. You get the benefits of everything having good names, declared sizes, and proper typing on your register accesses. You can extend that to bit accesses as well.
Rust still has a few areas it isn't competitive in, like your hyper limited or obscure chips (e.g. 8051s, XAP), mature tooling around formal methods, and a certification story for safety critical code. People are working on these latter two issues (e.g. ferrocene) and supposedly very close to public delivery, but you know how slow the industry is to adopt new things even then.

Real-Time Operating Systems 101: Basics for Efficient Computing

Unwinding the Stack the Hard Way
Yeah, and I like I mentioned in the earlier comment, omitting the frame pointer reduces code size by 10% on RISC-V targets, which is huge when dealing with embedded flash: https://github.com/tock/tock/pull/1660
- Where are the C Alternatives?

Embedded real time OS
Tock is an excellent embedded OS written in Rust and has some good industrial support. I think Tock gets a lot of stuff right and I highly recommend some of the talks the developers gave on it.

Fedora now has frame pointers
Unfortunately, it increases the code size by 10%. I was looking into this just last week, and can confirm that it's still a problem on the latest version of Rust nightly: https://github.com/tock/tock/pull/1660
I wish we could have frame pointers, because they would make working in embedded land so much easier and more reliable, but a 10% increase in code size just isn't worth it.

TockOS was the first rust RTOS I found. Coincidentally, it has had support for the esp32c3 for over a year now.
