About `esp32s3`
esp32s3 is a Peripheral Access Crate (PAC) for the ESP32-S3 microcontroller from Espressif Systems. It provides low-level, safe access to the hardware peripherals of the ESP32-S3, generated from the official SVD file using svd2rust. Part of the esp-rs ecosystem, it allows developers to write bare-metal firmware in Rust. The crate is dual-licensed under Apache 2.0 and MIT, and contributions are welcome under the same terms.
