The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Is rust used for microchip coding?
There's also RTIC which is another framework that makes concurrency trivial.
- Would generators be useful for embedded?

Are there universities that teach Rust?
At Telecom Paris, one of the top engineering schools in France, we teach Rust to undergraduate and graduate students who specialize in Embedded Systems. They get to use Rust and RTIC on STM32 based boards, and they also use Embassy for some projects.

When is the right time to change jobs?
If you want something more cutting edge. Try embedded Rust and checkout RTIC. I don't know if it's the real next thing. But i guess it could be fun to try.

In which circumstances is C++ better than Rust?
RTIC is still going strong, they are working on a 2.0 release at the moment :). There's also now embassy which provides an async runtime (and a ton of other nice things) for embedded as well :)

RTIC - RTOS and task scheduling

My negative views on Rust
That's completely incorrect. The existing ecosystem focuses on web/IO because that's were Async/Await is already being used in other languages so everyone started there. There is significant interest in writing frameworks using async rust in embedded, but the required compiler features for it are still not stable. Check out embassy. Even RTIC has experiments with async.

Question: Elegant way of getting a 'static reference?
But neither of them might be usable in you case. Since it looks like you're running bare-metal, a framework like RTIC can give you a initialization function and then pass "static" data to a struct that is shared between all tasks.

Is crate Drone already dead? Are there any alternatives? rtfm?
FYI, RTFM has been renamed to RTIC
What are some alternatives?
When comparing hoverkite and rtic you can also consider the following projects:
cortex-m-quickstart - Template to develop bare metal applications for Cortex-M microcontrollers
embassy - Modern embedded framework, using Rust and async.
tock - A secure embedded operating system for microcontrollers
svd2rust - Generate Rust register maps (`struct`s) from SVD files
avr-hal - embedded-hal abstractions for AVR microcontrollers
rustBoot - rustBoot is a standalone bootloader written entirely in `Rust`, designed to run on anything from a microcontroller to a system on chip. It can be used to boot into bare-metal firmware or Linux.
cortex-m - Low level access to Cortex-M processors
nettu-scheduler - A self-hosted calendar and scheduler server.
blisp - A statically typed Lisp like scripting programming language for Rust.
