+# esp32-c3 example
+
+this is an WIP signpost, to inform & guide to better examples. 
+
+👋🏻 I'm concurrently proposing basic signpost for README-embassy.md this is in conjunction with my proposed uplift:
+* https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-hal/pull/834
+* https://github.com/drogue-iot/drogue-device/pull/388
+
+## The Basics:
+* embassy-rs uses esp-rs/esp-hal
+* esp-hal: Hardware Abstraction Layer crates for the ESP32, ESP32-C2/C3/C6, ESP32-H2, and ESP32-S2/S3 from Espressif.
+* The Minimum Supported Rust Version is 1.67.0 for all packages.
+* 🔗 https://docs.rs/esp32c3-hal/latest/esp32c3_hal/
+
+## Quickstart:
+https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-hal/blob/main/esp32c3-hal/examples/embassy_hello_world.rs
+
+```
+gh repo clone esp-rs/esp-hal
+rustup target add riscv32imc-unknown-none-elf
+# when targeting RISC-V arch. necessary to set:
+RUSTC_BOOTSTRAP=1
+cd esp-hal/esp32c3-hal
+
+```
