Been following along with the development of Zircon. https://github.com/fuchsia-mirror/zircon What is cool is Google does this in the open and you can follow along. See which things have place holders and where the focus moves from day/week/month to day/week/month. Also developers on iirc and Travis super nice guy. I am old an worked with internals for decades and this is the most excited I have been about a kernel in a very long time. Looks to me the layers of Fuchsia are going to also be ala cart. So Flutter on multiple platforms. Zircon able to be used for a variety of purposes and then in addition the kernel for Fuchsia.

Well Zircon (Fuchsia's kernel) doesn't have any Rust code inside of it; it's C++. Parts of rust code used in Fuchsia can be found in the Garnet layer and it is just one of the languages that can interface with the OS via the FIDL (Fuchsia Interface Definition Language) [0][1]. An example of this is a tool written in Rust that communicates with parts of the bluetooth stack[2]. The network stack is also using it and is written in Go.
