areWeEmbeddedYet.rs?

Just a suggestion. Let’s make this a arewe_yet website.

It would be a more “pragmatic rust” way of doing this. Generating markdown-based website from the readme won’t be hard and I am willing to do it. Forking another arewe_yet website that already has the ci setup would be good too.

Also the title is like that just for readability. I know snake case is better.

If you're interested in building this, I'd be happy to take a look!

I had a go at it and forked arewewebyet: https://github.com/niclashoyer/areweembeddedyet

Two major problems arose:

  • the structure behind arewewebyet pulls all informations from crates.io, so the build failed for each package that was not yet published
  • parsing the readme was more difficult than I thought, so I just started with two topics, copying sections by hand: board support and hal implementations

The getting started section on the front page needs work, it still references the links related to web. But at least it's something 🌈

Edit: I'm archiving this for now. While it would be nice to have a website like that, I think it is too complicated to get this in sync to the markdown file right now.

A simpler way would be to use the website as either redirect or just renderer for the readme, although the value for such approach is greatly diminished.
