DeviceScript: TypeScript for Tiny IoT Devices
I am always a little surprised by efforts like these coming from big companies. There have been multiple efforts in the past to put languages meant for the web on small footprint devices - especially JavaScript.<p>- Tessel (closed down, domain used to be tessel.io)<p>- Toit Lang: <a href="https://toitlang.org/" rel="nofollow">https://toitlang.org/</a><p>- Moddable: <a href="https://www.moddable.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.moddable.com/</a><p>- Espruino: <a href="http://www.espruino.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.espruino.com/</a><p>- mBed tried it too: <a href="https://os.mbed.com/javascript-on-mbed/" rel="nofollow">https://os.mbed.com/javascript-on-mbed/</a><p>- <a href="https://github.com/coder-mike/microvium">https://github.com/coder-mike/microvium</a><p>I am sure I am missing a few here..<p>Note that some of these projects are over a decade old! Maybe I am the "old man yelling at the cloud" meme, but I don't see embedded developers who have to maintain a project for many many years, using a programming language that changes often.
