Trying to get into the habit of writing down the progress I've made on a particular day in order to convince my deeply-rooted perfectionist that it's okay to put the work down.

Since this is the dev log's first entry, I'm going to include all progress made up to this point.

• ported PCAL6416A driver from C to Rust targeting embedded-hal
• ported MCP23017 driver from C to Rust targeting embedded-hal
• ported TPS65186 driver from C to Rust targeting embedded-hal
• ported ED060XH7 e-paper driver from C to Rust targeting embedded-hal
• wrote a simple frame buffer implementation to back the ED060XH7 driver
• forked markdown-rs to expose a few internals
• wrote a simple in-memory font database and glyph rasterizer on top of ttf-parser and zeno targeting embedded-graphics
• wrote an implementation of the Knuth-Plass line breaking algorithm in Rust, published as the text-layout crate
• wrote a simple renderer for Markdown documents using text-layout and markdown-rs limited to a single page

At the end of the day, this all builds up to the following:

Which is not too shabby, really.

The first publicly-available artifact from this effort is the text_layout crate:
