Creator here!

I know, i know! This is what makes me a bit sad. I dont know of any modern compiler i can use on the platform, as most hobby compilers target aarch64 or 32/64 bit x86.

What i need tho is a compiler that targets Arm/Thumb-2.

My research tells me that this confines me to: - A non-complete patch series for TCC (maybe) - LLVM - GCC

As twonof them obviously won't run on 8 MB, my options are stripped down to:

- Evaluate CBE and write my own backend and add 32 bit support - Write my own compiler + backend

Both options don't sound viable before the release as they would increase the scope greatly.

Considered the effort required to add Lua support to the platform? At least eLua would fit and probably provide a great environment for onboard development (i.e. non-crosscompiling...)

		Lua is planned! It's an interpreted language with a lightweight compiler which is one of the next things on the "large scale" todo list!
