Rust bindings for ROS 2, providing the rclrs client library, code generator, and examples for writing ROS 2 robotics applications in Rust. It supports publishers/subscriptions, services, actions, parameters, QoS, and async APIs.

Use cases

• write ros2 nodes in rust
• rust bindings for ros 2
• build robotics applications with rust
• publish and subscribe to ros topics from rust
• implement ros2 services and actions in rust
• zero-copy messaging in ros2

When to choose

• you want to develop ROS 2 nodes in Rust instead of C++ or Python
• you need async/await support for ROS 2 communication
• you want memory-safe robotics code with zero-copy messaging

When to avoid

• you need full ROS 2 feature parity or API stability guarantees
• your project depends on libraries only available in C++ or Python
• you need long-term support for a production robotics stack
