Some of the files are just empty Rust files with names matching industry technologies, like the 0-byte prometheus.rs: https://github.com/iot-ecology/rust-iot-platform/blob/4f3ef3...

This reminds me of a lot of the “side projects” I’d see on resumes from juniors. A fun sandbox for their own experimenting and learning but impenetrable for anyone else.

It’s built on top of the Embassy embedded async runtime (which is great), and implements a lot of the stuff you need for IoT.

Unfortunately it seems to have been mainly written by red hat engineers who’ve been redeployed, so apart from a few active subprojects it’s mostly abandoned and slowly bit rotting. It’s a shame as it has real potential but didn’t quite reach production ready state.
