Instead of trying to (poorly) reimplement the features, I think it is best to build upon the rppal. [Read More]

The library provides a simple interface to control GPIO devices with a Raspberry Pi. Following this, recently ported the Raspberry Pi Foundation’s Physical Computing with Python3 guide for Rust. Why did I create the rust_gpiozero crate? After going through The Rust Programming language book, I decided to work on a side project to practice some of the concepts. [Read More]
