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.

Getting into Robotics as a Software Engineer
No, no - I have a half a dozen RPi's of varying revisions. Since they run Linux and the SDcards are less than robust, anytime you accidentially trip the power (which to me happens several times during hardware debugging sessions) you risk scrambling the rootfs and thus need to reflash a new SDcard. Some SDcards get damaged.
I recommend using Arduino and/or Wokwi (https://wokwi.com/) to get started.

Embedded Rust Education: 2023 Reflections & 2024 Visions
More Wokwi Integration: Wokwi is an amazing embedded simulator and is great for getting started quickly. For a learner, there's no need for toolchain setup or even the purchase of hardware. There are many features as well that make it quite a flexible tool supporting a lot of features right from the browser. Users can also vote for more features. Still maybe at some point, one might want to tinker with physical hardware. However, at that point, they would have gained some confidence first. Currently, only ESP boards are supported with Rust on Wokwi. I hope for the variety to expand soon.

Need advice on Arduino projects and programming
In addition to the other great suggestions here I wanted to point out that you can practice and learn a lot for free using an online simulator such as wokwi.com and tinkercad.com (among others)! And you don't have to buy an Arduino or any parts to get started!

Arduino calender clock project
And you can prototype all of this first to get it working for free using an online simulator at sites like wokwi.com or tinkercad.com!

How do I get better at Low level programming
If you don't have the budget for real hardware consider the simulator at https://wokwi.com/ It works with Rust (at least for ESP32, haven't tried other architectures). Bonus: you can't blow up the electronics by a wiring mistake.

Have many folks played around with Chatgpt and FastLED?
I spent a bit of time today with a few FastLED programs and uploaded them to wokwi.com on a simulated Arduino Nano and a WS2812 strip of 64 LED's (not in a 2D matrix). The chatgpt requests I made were:

Jumperless: Breadboard Without Jumper
https://tinyurl.com/yr34sym6
https://wokwi.com/ is great for simple, digital only stuff.
https://fritzing.org/ will kind of lay out the PCB for you, but it's kind of a pain in the ass.
Wokwi and Fritzing are more "Breadboard Simulators" than real circuit simulators, but they do have their place.

I built a working automated dry chamber with an Arduino and a thermoelectric wine cooler and want to make the project open source.
Another cool thing you may want to try is making a simulator https://wokwi.com/

ESP32 Standard Library Embedded Rust: GPIO Interrupts
It's well established that interrupts are a tough concept to grasp for the embedded beginner. Add to that when doing it in Rust the complexity of dealing with mutable static variables. This is because working with shared variables and interrupts is inherently unsafe if proper measures are not taken. When looking at how to do interrupts using the esp-idf-hal I first resorted to the Embedded Rust on Espressif book. Interrupts are covered under the Advanced Workshop in section 4.3, and to be honest, I was taken aback a little at what could be an additional level of complexity for a beginner. Without too much detail, this is because the book resorts to using lower-level implementations. For those interested, by that, I mean FFI interfaces to FreeRTOS which I will be creating a separate post about later.

ESP32 Standard Library Embedded Rust: GPIO Control
Relative to the esp-idf-hal , as far as material goes, there exists training material that is open sourced by Ferrous systems. The training material takes a bit of a different approach where it starts with high-level IoT exercises followed by low-level control. Additionally, the training is based on the awesome Rust ESP board hardware.

Espressif advances with Rust – 30-06-2023
Yes! The training developed with Ferrous Systems (https://esp-rs.github.io/std-training/) contains several examples, and you can find many community projects in https://github.com/esp-rs/awesome-esp-rust#projects

Unlocking Possibilities: 4 Reasons Why ESP32 and Rust Make a Winning Combination
Good places to get started with std Rust on ESP include the Rust on ESP book, Embedded Rust on Espressif by Ferrous Systems. There's also the Awesome ESP Rust GitHub repository that contains a lot of useful material and project examples.

Why do I constantly feel like I'm doing something wrong by continuing using C++?
I must admit I've never used it for anything but tutorials yet (kids resulted in a lot of personal projects shelved), but Rust has an amazing and rapidly developing embedded ecosystem. A good starting point to get an impression of it might be training materials from Ferrous Systems 1, 2 (feel free to pay for the training itself if you feel like it's worth it for you of course). There is an embedded working group for Rust, Knurling project to improve tooling and even an attempt of Rust standard certified for safety-critical application.

Ask HN: Has any Rust developer moved to embedded device programming?
I’ve been super curious about both Rust and ESP. It seems like Espressif is interested enough to commission a Rust dev board (ESP32-C3-DevKit-RUST-1) and training using it.
