[MUC++] Lotte Steenbrink & Wouter van Ooijen - C++/Rust: Learning from Each Other
Channel: MUCplusplus
Date: 20/10/2021

Every programming language has its strengths. In order to better understand and use the strengths of a language, it is important to look beyond its boundaries and to learn from other programming languages. In this cross-pollination meetup, we'll experience the strengths of both C++ and Rust when used for a simple embedded task:

"Make an LED blink"

We will discuss what these two languages could learn from each other and where these two languages can still improve for the context of embedded applications.
