+# embassy-net-udp
+
+## About
+
+This application is testing basic
+[embassy](https://github.com/embassy-rs/embassy) _networking_ usage with RIOT-rs.
+
+## How to run
+
+In this folder, run
+
+    laze build -b nrf52840dk run
+
+With the device USB cable connected, a USB ethernet device should pop up.
+RIOT-rs will reply to ping requests on 10.0.42.61.
