Libraries, crates and examples for using Rust on Espressif SoC's

Rust on Espressif microcontrollers

This organization is home to several projects enabling the use of the Rust programming language on various SoCs and modules produced by Espressif Systems.

If you are just getting started writing Rust for ESP devices, please first read The Rust on ESP book.

For a curated list of resources for development including tools and projects, see Awesome ESP Rust.

Hardware Abstraction Layer

We offer two choices for Hardware Abstraction Layers:

Repository Description Support status
esp-rs/esp-hal Without support for the Rust standard library (no_std) Support status
esp-rs/esp-idf-hal With support for the Rust standard library (std) Support status

Build Tools

This organization contains a fork of the Rust compiler with added support for the Xtensa ISA. Pre-built binaries for said compiler fork are additionally provided for most common operating systems and architectures.

Repository Description
esp-rs/rust Rust compiler fork with Xtensa support
esp-rs/rust-build Pre-built binaries of the Rust compiler fork, plus installation scripts
