Rust oxide.computer

An embedded OS all in Rust  ↦

Bryan Cantrill, announcing Hubris and Humility:

… we found ourselves increasingly forcing existing systems out of the comfort of their design centers, we wondered: was our assumption of using an existing system wrong? Should we in fact be exploring our own de novo operating system? In particular, our colleague Cliff Biffle, who had a ton of experience with both Rust and embedded systems, had a vision for what such a system might look like (namely, the system that he had always wanted for himself!). Cliff dove into a sketch of his ideas, giving the nascent system a name that felt perfectly apt: Hubris.

There’s some serious innovation going on at Oxide and I can’t wait to see what they do next.
