BBB is killer and far superior to the Raspberry Pi IMO - if only we could hook a nerves compatible NIF into the BBB's real-time CPU...

Also... Rust based NIF's (bits of code in other languages that can be wrapped as modules in elixir) are insanely cool!

There have been a few projects that use the PRUs with Nerves. It's pretty trivial to get setup. We've been trying to come up with a way to package an Elixir project to get started.

Please link me to some example code or articles! So excited to hear this is a thing, my absolute dream is to implement a PID control loop for a PRU in nerves.

This is somewhat old now, but the PRU code which i find to be the most important part is still good.
