The 2024 recap gives you a good sense of the atmosphere at Oxidize - two days of applied Rust talks and a warm, engaged community ๐Ÿฆ€

We're looking forward to welcoming you all back in Berlin this September 14โ€“16, 2026. Note that workshop seats are limited; we recommend booking these early.

OxidizeConf 2024 Recap

Slint bills itself as a UI framework that runs on anything. But what does that mean with no OS, no std, and an ESP32-S3 as your target?

At Oxidize 2026, Vasileios Papageorgiou (Extenly) puts that claim to the test by building a working smartwatch prototype - walking through display and touchscreen integration, what the embedded Rust ecosystem already covers, and where the gaps are when Slint meets bare metal.

You write a handful of lines of Rust, osdyne does the rest.

Michael Steil (osdyne) runs a full-day workshop at Oxidize 2026 on using osdyne - a Rust-based embedded OS and SDK with hardware portability, declarative system configuration, ready-made connectivity libraries, and signed OTA updates built in.

Hey everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹ I've been playing with the new Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W (RP2350) and rs-matter-embassy. Good news: getting a Matter-compatible "Blinky" running in Rust is very approachable! ๐Ÿฆ€๐Ÿ’ก

I made a fully documented example of a Matter Wi-Fi Light bulb (BLE for commissioning, Wi-Fi for connectivity). Pair the Pico directly to Apple/Google Home or Home Assistant!

What do you do when a last-minute opportunity to test your hardware in space lands on your desk - and there's no time to spin up an embedded Linux?

Michaรซl Melchiore (Infinite Orbits) will share how Rust's embedded ecosystem gave his team the foundations to move fast without cutting corners on safety. A talk about real constraints, tight schedules, and getting to space anyway.

Much of the Rust-in-safety-critical conversation focuses on perceived gaps - but how do those concerns play out in practice? Florian Gilcher (@skade) from @ferrous joins fellow industry experts to discuss what actually matters for Rust adoption in regulated environments, from qualified tooling to certification.

Oxidize Conference

The Oxidize Conference is the event for applied Rust. We don't just talk about how to use Rust, but we're looking at where Rust is being used. From embedded technology in IoT medical devices to critical safety applications to vehicular dashboards written in Ferrocene โ€“ our speakers and workshops are about taking Rust to new levels.

You don't have to rewrite your C firmware in Rust all at once. Christian Meusel's workshop at Oxidize 2026 is about doing it incrementally - starting from build integration and FFI calls, through to third-party crates for QR generation.

How does Rust fit inside a next-gen EV battery?

Julius Gustavsson (@jgust) from Volvo Cars will walk through SmartCell - their new AC battery technology that eliminates the inverter and onboard charger by shifting intelligence directly into the battery. Rust plays a central role in making that software-defined architecture robust, secure, and production-ready.

Embassy is still rare in commercial products - which makes Gerhard de Clercq's (Low Noise Factory AB) experience at Oxidize 2026 worth paying attention to.

He'll cover what it actually took to ship an embedded product built on Embassy: the hurdles, the web server gotchas, and how hardware simulation factored into both the electronics design and firmware development sides of the project.
