Driver Crates Released released 9
Driver Crates WIP WIP 30

Help Wanted

  • We are seeking input about the user interface the cargo-binutils subcommands should expose. These subcommands provide access to the LLVM tools provided by the llvm-tools rustup component mentioned above.
  • Are you using embedded Rust in production? We are collecting commercial testimonials about embedded Rust for the webpage the embedded WG will have on the revamped rust-lang.org website. Even if you can't give details about the product you are building we would still love to hear from you!
