irust

Irust is a programming language and compiler plugin that targets the Rust programming language. It is designed to integrate Rust with the Internet of Things (IoT) and embedded systems development. Irust provides features such as pinning and-leaking removal, which can help improve the reliability and performance of Rust programs on these platforms.

Irust is written in Rust and uses the Rust compiler (rustc) as its core engine. The plugin modifies the compiler's intermediate representation (IR), allowing developers to write Rust code that can be executed on embedded systems and other resource-constrained environments. Irust also includes tools for optimizing and debugging IoT and embedded systems programs.

Key features of irust include:

* Dynamic sizing of structs and arrays

* SIMD instructions for performance optimization

* Support for customizable instruction sets

* Advanced memory management and pinning

* Efficient I/O system interactions

Irust is primarily used to develop applications that require real-time processing, high performance, and low latency. Its target platforms include microcontrollers, single-board computers, and Linux-based embedded systems. The irust project has gained attention for its innovative approach to integrating Rust with IoT and embedded systems development.

The irust compiler plugin is released under a permissive license, allowing developers to modify and distribute its source code freely. Irust is developed by a community-driven project, which welcomes contributions from developers and experts in the field. Despite being an experimental project, irust has gained momentum and is considered a promising addition to the Rust ecosystem.
