Even a mediocre coder should be able to start from a blank file and, within 10 minutes, make something that tweets when the sun comes up.&lt;p&gt;So far, rust on esp32 is far from that...   But hopefully they can get there!</text></comment>

I even wrote the driver of a chip connected to my devices (the sx1276 LoRa radio), and the experience has been very positive.</text></comment>
