Their Rust HALs seem to be getting (new?) traction over https://github.com/rustsbi/bouffalo-hal
This will be a good exercise to modularise Espressif-specific logic and make this crate more generic/multiplatform, potentially paving the way to support future third party ICs.
Unfortunately that HAL seems to critically have RF (Wifi/Bluetooth) functionality missing, explore whether this can be addressed with the main sdk from bouffalo labs: https://github.com/bouffalolab/bouffalo_sdk
Or the new ST67W (STM32)?: https://www.st.com/en/wireless-connectivity/st67w611m1.html
Or https://www.cnx-software.com/2025/12/22/gigadevice-gd32vw553-unifi-a-2-wifi-6-and-bluetooth-5-2-le-wireless-iot-module/
Or https://www.cnx-software.com/2026/03/04/dabao-board-features-open-source-hardware-baochip-1x-risc-v-mcu/ (no wifi but OSS at the silicon level)
