I'm not sure how to feel about this. I'm sort of half in the target audience and half not. This feels like a board for everyone, and for no one. I thought, wow, this would be a cool way to work with rust on the RP2040/2350 but then the only books available are only for ESP devices. A maker lab 99-projects-in-one PCB with a soldered on (or pluggable) RP2350 with companion text would scratch all the itches of my particular interest in rust and MCUs. As someone who has a lot of C/C++ experience in the MCU world, the most mysterious part of rust on MCUs for me is the world of bit twiddling and register accesses from a safe language. I would love to have a playground to explore this kind of stuff. And would strongly prefer open hardware like the RP2XXX family over a commercial chip like the ESP.

Must've been fairly popular. Every bundle including the board is already out of stock
