#3Really excited to see the progress. Love writing rust rather than I think c++ I was using?

#4How does embedded programming square with the "safety shaming" rust culture?
Surely you're transmuting all over the place.

#5I'm curious if anyone here has projects that already use Rust on the Espressif platform.

Not sure if you are aware of the projects mentioned here: https://github.com/esp-rs/awesome-esp-rust#projects

What is safety shaming?

You hide the unsafe code in functions and the rest of the code is safe

Ideology-driven development is bad no matter what environment you’re coding for.
I’d view it as similar to any other work in a hazardous environment: Apply layers of protection to mitigate risks to an acceptable level. There are so many unavoidably tricky things about embedded development that if you can easily rule out the avoidable ones, it’s worth it.
‘Unsafe’ isn’t a synonym for ‘bad practice’, it’s just a hint to ‘look here first’.

#10These guys are talking business. Some weeks ago I vented in Twitter about problems building an example project for ESP32 (in Portuguese), someone from Espressif side was diligent enough to translate it and answer with hints (in the end, I had messed up during toolchain installation, thanks there is espup now).
