Cool, my @rustnl.bsky.social talk is online now!

Since doing the talk I've been working more on device-driver because of ideas and inspiration I got from talking to people afterwards :D

Interrupt Live: James Munns | From Zero to main(): Bare metal Rust YouTube video by Memfault

I'm going to be on @memfault.com's YouTube live on Thursday: www.youtube.com/live/kflFgdH...

One Q I want to answer is "where is Rust being used in production for embedded?", if anyone wants to share anything that is public I should namedrop, please let me know!

Drop by and hype up the chat too!

Congrats!

Even if it's just a number, it feels good to put an official version number on something and have it published. Thanks to my employer, Akiles, for supporting me working on this kind of stuff!

Today we revealed our next EV model to sport our Rust based ECU. Check it out: www.youtube.com/live/R-sTdMh... #rustlang

crates.io: Rust Package Registry

Today I published arm-targets, a Rust crate that looks at your target string and lets you mark code as only working on specific versions of the Arm architecture. Ideally Rust would have built in target features for this, but it doesn’t.

Espressif working towards the first 1.0 vendor HAL for embedded Rust.

This is EXTREMELY cool to see!

Connectivity Software Engineer - Rust in Palo Alto, California | Rivian and VW Group Technology rivian-vw-group-technology is hiring a Connectivity Software Engineer - Rust in Palo Alto, California. Review all of the job details and apply today!

We have a few #rustlang positions at Rivian! The needle is really moving :) Preferably in CA, but there are options. careers.rivianvw.tech/rivian-vw-gr...

Might be slightly too long? It’s been awhile since I uploaded a short, but I seem to recall having to make sure it was under a minute (with some margin) for its automagical detection of an upload as a short to work properly…

Poststation by OneVariable GmbH Talking to devices should be easy

The day is finally here! Poststation is now available to download/buy!

The goal is to make it easier for more people to use postcard + postcard-rpc in their devices, and make it pretty painless to talk to multiple devices, or multiple versions of devices.

Check it out here:

poststation.rs

I'm shipping Poststation soon, and am looking to pick up some new consulting work now that core R&D is wrapping up

If you need help:

* Using Rust for embedded systems
* Planning/kicking off a system built with Rust
* Connecting two or more devices using Rust
* Advising on ^that

Hit me up to chat!

probe-rs needs your feedback! Take this 5 minutes survey to help us better understand how you are using probe-rs, an open-source debugging tool for embedded systems. Thanks for helping us make probe-rs even better!

Hey, if you're a Rust and/or embedded person, and you use the probe-rs toolkit (pretty much everyone does in embedded and Rust!), you'd be doing me a huge favor if you took a minute to fill out their survey and/or share internally or with people you know:

Thanks JP, same!

My new chapter of the #Rust book on async and await is finally out on nightly—coming in 1.85! doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/book... I spent months planning, drafting, and rewriting this—and now it’s live! We’ll have more edits and improvements, but this is a huge step forward for learning async in Rust.

Sequential-storage － Efficiently Store Data in Flash A discussion of a sequential storage crate which can be used in Rust projects for efficiently storing data in NOR flash.

Hell yeah, great to see @diondokter.bsky.social on the Memfault Interrupt blog, showing off portable data storage for embedded Rust on microcontrollers:

There's been a ton of new folks in the last weeks, if you do embedded and/or rustlang stuff, and I don't follow you, say hey so I can follow more folks back!

Just published v0.10 of postcard-rpc, which I intend to release as 1.0 if no issues in the library or wire spec are found.

Check it out if you want an out of the box protocol for embassy devices over USB, and stay tuned for more transports like RTT, UART, or Radios!
