Hello Forum,
has anybody used Rust compiler for small MCUs Like STM32 or ESP32. Today I was watching tutorials about Rust language and I am curious how programs written in this language prove itself on small MCUs (like smaller series of STM32 or ESP32(Xtensa). I am also curious about availability of libraries for control hardware (like for example ADCs or varoius sensor) from crate.io, or "unsafe" code and C library has been used often. I understand that Rust language is much more safe than C/C++ (memory safe and threads safe), but I would like to know if in your opinion it is worth to switch from C++ to Rust (in context of smaller ARMs)? I am going to try Rust on STM32 and ESP32 within several next days.
Best Regards
