The Embedded Rustacean Issue #9
Hello and welcome to the Embedded Rustacean! This newsletter is a bi-weekly curation of resources and a summary of everything happening around embedded Rust π¦. This newsletter was started because of the belief in Rust as a programming language with all the traits 𧬠(pun intended) that prime it to become the future of software in embedded systems. Weβre another issue closer to that vision.
