The Embedded Rustacean Issue #27
Hello and welcome to the Embedded Rustacean! This newsletter is a bi-monthly curation of resources and a summary of everything happening around embedded Rust ๐ฆ. This newsletter was started because of the belief in Rust as a programming language with all the traits ๐งฌ (pun intended) that prime it to become the future of software in embedded systems. Weโre another issue closer to that vision.
