Group picture from the first day.
Took a lot of notes, my highlights so far were:
- Massimilianos' RP2040-based, Rust-driven robot racer
- options to improve handling of bitfields in packed structs
- typestate pattern for use in state machines, think objects that mutate into different types as the states progress, so only methods relevant to the current state are available and enforced at compile time, ex. rustls::ConfigBuilder
- Milica shared her teams' experience switching from C++ to Rust
- Simon Brummers' text-2-morse-code character device driver, an excellent example project to get started with Rust-based Linux-kernel-module development
Not entirely serious question: Why does the Gnome Terminal icon represent an IBM PC DOS prompt instead of UNIX shell prompt? Is that what folks think of first, when they think of a command prompt?
