RUST for Nordic nRF 52

[Nudel]

Folks:

I´d like to know if there is a possibility to use RUST language to compile to nRF 52 modules ?

If so, where I can find any information about it ?

Also if there exist, what about libraries to use BLE with RUST ?

Best regards

Andre

nRF52 uses a Cortex-M4 core - so, if you have tools to target Cortex-M4, you can use them.

The Nordic BLE protocol stack - the "SoftDevice" - is supplied as a binary; so you would have to ensure that your tools supported a suitable interface.

The SoftDevice also requires a specific memory layout - so you would have to ensure that your tools can cope with that.

It seems it can be done, but is not  a thing that Nordic support:
