The weekly driver initiative 路 Issue #39 路 rust-embedded/wg (original) (raw)

There's now a HAL published on crates.io: embedded-hal (Introduction blog post). 馃帀

To put it to test and to expand the crates.io ecosystem I'm starting the weekly driver initiative.

The goal is to release a new no_std, generic, embedded-hal based driver crate every one or two
weeks. Driver crate here means a library crate that lets you interface an external component like a
digital sensor or a wireless transceiver. A driver release consists of (a) publishing a library
crate on crates.io (*) and (b) presenting your driver to the community via any means: a blog post,
a tweet, a reddit post, a u.r-l.o https://users.rust-lang.org post, etc.

(*) Make sure you tag your crate with the embedded-hal-driver keyword!

If you'd like to participate leave a comment here stating the driver you'll be working on. If you
can post a link to the repo where the (WIP) driver code is or will be, even better! If you don't
have a personal blog to present your driver to the community you can do a guest post on my blog.

For a list of released and WIP drivers check the awesome-embedded-rust list. If you'd like your crate to be added to that list simply send a PR to that repo!

TODO (potentially):

These are components that @japaric has at hand:
