@bonkers@nerdculture.de @henk@waag.social Rust is definitely not beginner friendly. Arduino only got away with C++ because they used the smallest possible subset of the language, to the point where it might have well been a custom-written DSL.

@bonkers@nerdculture.de @henk@waag.social Compatibility with the huge number of existing arduino libraries for various chips and peripherals is also a pretty important asset. I've been looking for a rust library for the MAX3421E and the rust support is basically nonexistant. Arduino libraries meanwhile support nearly a dozen USB device classes including android debug bridge.
