Hey everyone! I'm working on my Master's thesis about Rust in embedded systems and trying to figure out how much Nordic Semiconductor actually backs the Rust community.
From what I can see, the nrf-rs stuff looks pretty community-driven, but I'm curious about some other things:
- Are any Nordic employees actually writing code for the nrf-rs repos, or is it all volunteer work?
- Do they help when Rust devs get stuck with rewriting libraries into Rust?
- Have they put any money into Rust conferences or projects?
- Is there any official word on whether they'll keep supporting Rust going forward?
If anyone has worked with Nordic on Rust stuff or knows someone who has, I'd love to hear about it. Even rumours or unofficial info would help - just trying to get a realistic picture of vendor support for my research.
Thanks!
