Rust to .NET compiler - Progress update
The past few months have been quite chaotic, both for the Rust to .NET compiler backend I am working on, and for me personally. As I am writing this article, I am in the metaphorical eye of the hurricane - I have just graduated high school, and I will be writing my national final exams in about a week. Still, since I have a bit of free time, I will try to write about some of the progress I have made!
rustc_codegen_clr is a compiler backend, which allows the Rust compiler to turn Rust code into .NET assemblies. You can imagine it as a plugin, replacing the very last stage of Rust compilation.
One of the things I have worked on recently was submitting a proposal related to this project to Google Summer of Code. And, today I am proud to announce that it has been accepted!
What does this mean for the project? Well, first of all, I will be able to focus solely on rustc_codegen_clr for the following months. Before that, I had been working on the project in my free time - in the evenings or weekends. So, the speed of development should increase.
