Sequential-storage: efficiently store data in flash
While using a full-blown filesystem for storing your data in non-volatile memory is common practice, those filesystems are often too big, not to mention annoying to use, for the things I want to do. My solution?
I've been hard at work creating the sequential-storage crate. In this blog post I'd like to go over what it is, why I created it and what it does.
Rust for hardware vendors
At Tweede golf we're big fans of creating applications on embedded devices with Rust and we've written a lot about it.
But if you're a hardware vendor (be it chips or full devices/systems), should you give your users Rust support in addition to your C support?
In this blog I argue that the answer to the question is yes.

TrustZone, trials and tribulations
TrustZone-m is a technology by ARM that allows you to create a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) in your software. You can use it for example to keep your encryption keys secret or to separate a big vulnerable networking stack from your own code.
Over the last three months I've been working on a set of crates (Rust libraries) with the aim of making the usage of TrustZone-m a lot easier.
Crash! And now what?
Imagine you've just deployed an embedded device in the world and of course, you have tested it thoroughly and it works. To monitor the device, you've set up some logging.

Async Rust vs RTOS showdown!
It's time for another technical blog post about async Rust on embedded. This time we're going to pitch Embassy/Rust against FreeRTOS/C on an STM32F446 microcontroller.
