Hi everyone.

I worked through the Embedded Rust Discovery book a while ago and have a side project in mind.

I was hoping to get some recommendations for hardware that would have good Rust support.

I have a device that provides a serial interface over its USB C port. I can already send it commands and receive responses using my computer but now I’d like to create a standalone adapter that allows this device to receive MIDI messages.

The “Receive MIDI Over UART and Send Over
USB” section of Adafruit’s “MIDI for Makers” guide sounds exactly like what I want to do, except I want to use Rust and send serial over USB C.

I’m also quite sure the device on the USB C side won’t be able to power the adapter, so would perhaps need another USB C port for power.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

I hope this is the right place to ask. Feel free to direct me to a more appropriate forum if not.

Thanks.
