As Carl Sagan once said, "If you wish to build a keyboard from scratch, you must first invent a CAD kernel."
Last time we had Brian present, he talked about writing the firmware in Rust for a keyboard he had designed and built. He will pick up where he left off, continuing the story with a case to really tie the keyboard together.
He's got a 3D printer and he's not afraid to use it. But he also wants to version control all his projects. So, naturally, instead of clicking and dragging his way through Fusion360, he turns to the arcane world of code-based CAD.
Join us to learn about what code-based CAD is all about, and what the future might be...

What do Rust, C, and C++ all have in common besides curly braces? Why do we say that "Rust is a systems programming language"? How is firmware made, and what the heck is it anyway?
Brian Schwind (Engineer at tonari) talks about how he built his own keyboard and developed the firmware in Rust. Watch to learn about the world of embedded programming that's hiding in plain sight everywhere around us, and how Rust can help you tap into it!

Brian Heise (Fullstack Developer at Liferay) talks about everything you might want to know about web dev in Rust, from the perspective of a newcomer to the language. Watch to learn about the benefits, disadvantages, and unique aspects Rust has when it comes to building web apps - both frontend and backend.
Special thanks to:

What makes Rust more than "just another curly-brace language"? And what would it take to bring it to safety-critical domains like automotive, aerospace, and medical devices? Florian Gilcher (Co-founder of Ferrous Systems) talks about Rust's journey into such industries, highlighting key aspects of its potential for adoption.
Watch to hear Florian's insights about Rust's growing significance for high-integrity systems, opportunities that the future holds for the language, and the challenges that must be addressed for it to become a prominent player in this space.
