Hi, we are more than happy to accept contributions! Definitely, this is something that we will need to solve.

For reference, we could use:

• https://gitee.com/espressif_systems as mirror of esp-idf and other github dependencies
• And we could upload release binaries to AWS like we do in: https://github.com/espressif/idf-installer/blob/main/.github/workflows/update-index.yml

🤔maybe rust-build need a mirror too

We could publish the toolchain release artifacts to AWS.

Just a small update on this, on yesterday's community meeting we discussed this issue. We will be probably creating a mirror of our Xtensa Rust and LLVM artifacts, probably in AWS, but we will wait until no_std does not require GCC as a linker so we don't have to create a mirror for it too.

Tracking issue for Xtensa Rust mirror: esp-rs/rust-build#27

Just noticed that @chang196700 is using https://ghproxy.com/. I dont have any experience with it, but if it works, maybe we could just include a --proxy argument that when used we download it from ghproxy instead.

I modify this source file , path src/toolchain/mod.rs:73

   let client = reqwest::Client::builder()
        .proxy(reqwest::Proxy::https("http://127.0.0.1:20171")?)
        .build()?;


    let resp = client.get(&url).send().await?;
    let bytes = resp.bytes().await?;
