STL Rust

David Webber will cover emulation of retro systems (NES, Gameboy) in Rust and why they are cool projects for Rust beginners

Join us for the STL Rust Meetup’s first embedded programming talk — exploring how Rust can power real‑world hardware projects!Speaker Noah Williams will share lessons learned from designing a 3D‑printed quadcopter with radio controls, covering:

• Using Rust for microcontroller programming
• Leveraging embedded-hal for hardware abstraction
• Reading and understanding electrical circuit diagrams
• Insights from integrating electronics, firmware, and 3D‑printed parts

Whether or not the quadcopter is fully airborne by October, you’ll walk away with practical knowledge, inspiration, and a deeper understanding of embedded Rust development.No prior electronics experience required — just bring your curiosity.📅 Date: Thursday, October 2nd, 2025 📍 Location: STL Rust Meetup (see venue details on this page) 🎤 Speaker: Noah Williams

steady_state needed a 3D visualization to replace its old 2D. The SIUE students have stepped up to build a neat solution with Rust and wasm. Come join us to learn about 3D rendering in your browser.

TBD, If you would like to speak or know of anyone with something to share please reach out.
