> STM32L0 onboard runs embedded Rust firmware

First time I’ve seen a real project using this.

How far is embedded rust away from “prime time” you think?

Also, the STM32 is a system supervisor, did it really need an RTOS?




Yeah! Embedded Rust on STM32* right now is pretty good! A lot of consolidation has happened in the device crates and HAL crates recently, so I'm adjusting a bit. But, it's looking good.

I'm actually working on a post about restarting my firmware using the latest and greatest (I started working on this firmware over a year ago).

I used the RFTM real-time OS (RTOS) because it's super light-weight and handy for checking at compile time that my interrupt handlers don't cause conflicts. It's really a nice framework for any event-based firmware (a big chunk).
