Rust Client for ROS2
Create a Rust Client for ROS2 from Scratch. Part 1.1: Create the Dynamic Library via CMake & Empy
The easiest way to create an interface code for a target app is by using `CMake` and `empy`. Explore the simplest version of how both can be used in ROS2.
This is the second article appearing in this series: Rust Client for ROS2 from Scratch.

Background
It has been quite some time since I published the first article in this series. Over the last month, I’ve been busy moving into a new apartment and spent most of my time helping set-up our new place — which gave me little time for other things. With the move now complete, it’s been a load off my back and I’ve been able to resume my writing, thinking and working at my regular pace.
Our first article in this series creates a ROS2 interface for our Rust code using bindgen. That article highlights how we can create a node and register it onto the ROS2 network. As we advance through the series, our next goal is to create a ROS2 node in Rust and then send some topic messages out, through that node.
