The Hidden War Keeping Rust Off Your Embedded Devices
Rust in embedded systems isn’t failing because of technical shortcomings — it’s losing a supply chain war. Hardware vendors control the ecosystem with first-party C/C++ SDKs, and the economic cost of retraining and community-maintained BSPs keeps Rust from breaking into professional embedded work. The real solution isn’t waiting for vendor support; it’s building a Rust hardware abstraction layer that makes chip vendors interchangeable.
