The Embedded Rustacean Issue #17

April 12, 2024

Sponsored by

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 πŸ¦€. This newsletter was started because of the belief in Rust as a programming language with all the traits 🧬 (pun intended) that prime it to become the future of software in embedded systems. We’re another issue closer to that vision.

Quote of the Issue

Those who want really reliable software will discover that they must find means of avoiding the majority of bugs to start with, and as a result, the programming process will become cheaper. If you want more effective programmers, you will discover that they should not waste their time debugging, they should not introduce the bugs to start with.
