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.

Embedded Rust Education: 2023 Reflections & 2024 Visions
Inspired by James Munns's call, and as 2023 is coming to an end, I figure it's a good opportunity to reflect and look forward to 2024. It's been a bit over 1.5 years since I embarked on my embedded Rust journey and it's been nothing less than exciting since. So here it goes.

In search of Rust projects to contribute
Because you are an embedded guy. There is the https://github.com/rust-embedded/wg working-group. Rust on embedded is really on a got track forward. There are many chips/vendors that are supported both in no std / std rust world, but still there is a lot of niche things where you can actively help to be the first to get it run in Rust.

Rust โ Are We Game Yet?
To specifically answer your question, here:
* <http://www.areweembeddedyet.com/>
It currently redirects to:
* <https://rust-embedded.org>
Which doesn't really contain anything other than a link to <https://github.com/rust-embedded>.

Google announce secure Rust-based OS for embedded system
Then the Rust Embedded workgroup provides: - Direction on how to using generics and zero-sized types to achieve functional safety - svd2rust, which provides safe abstractions to peripheral access from SVD files and achieves this functional safety - The embedded HAL spec, which makes porting to different vendors/hardware easy - Peripheral access controllers and HALs for various vendors & hardware
-
What are your guys' thoughts on Rust?
The Rust Embedded Devices Working Group curates a list of useful embedded Rust resources, including Peripheral Access Crates (autogenerated from SVD files), embedded-hal Implementation Crates (hand-written libraries implementing the traits (interfaces) specified by the embedded-hal), and Board Support Crates.

Question about Rust's binary size
You should also look at https://github.com/rust-embedded/wg/issues/41 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/55011#issuecomment-429336055.

Things you canโt do in Rust (and what to do instead)
Here's an interesting discussion, consolidated here. My view is you should use a restricted scope atomic (as best as can be supported) and interact with that through a handler struct. I.e. no global state.
- Semantic Versioning Will Not Save You
- Is there a embedded community/website where it is modern?

Would it be possible to run Rust on the new Raspberry Pi Pico?
Most of the issues are explained in EWG RFC 419. The TL;DR is that some resources need to implement Send to be usable from interrupts, but they must not be sent across cores.

How can someone who has primarily worked in Web/Mobile development break into systems engineering?
The most substantial project that I have to show for my knowledge of the lower level topics is this project I work on in my spare-time called erdtree and I'm really banking on that to stand-in as "experience" in the absence of professional systems experience.

In search of Rust projects to contribute
I'm working on this little project called erdtree and could use a bit of help adding information about file owners and permissions for the windows build if you're interested. No worries if not :)

fn main() at the top or bottom?
I actually do put my main function in the middle

Announcing ๏ธโ๐ erdtree v3.1 ๏ธโ๐
User feedback really helps drive erdtree's development so happy to accept input if you have any! And yeah et became erd because of name clashes with a lot of other existing packages.

Hosting a free 2-hour Rust intro course tomorrow over Google Meets
I'm a self-taught developer working professionally as a director of engineering who writes Rust on weekends. I've been using Rust now for a little over 2 years and am the author and maintainer of this little command-line tool called erdtree. Before I was a programmer I did extensive tutoring in various subjects like organic chemistry, biochemistry, physics, calculus, etc..
- erdtree: a modern, multi-threaded, general purpose disk usage and filesystem utility that combines aspects of tree, du, wc, ls, and find.

What's everyone working on this week (23/2023)?
Took a healthy break from this little open-source project I've been iterating on.. ready to get back to it this weekend :]

ls, tree, du, etc. - which do you prefer and why?
I personally use erdtree, it even uses icons to differentiate various kinds of files

Creating a project to show off your skills
Hereโs a project that I work on in my spare time. I initially worked on a very bare bones version on a 6-hour plan ride back in spring of 2022 because I was bored and wanted to work on something challenging without the need for internet. After two days I posted a naive version onto GitHub and after like 6 months it got around 100 stars on GitHub so I then decided to give it special attention in January of this year and have been iterating on it since.
