This is really impressive, and a great write up. I’ve been following the work on static compiling Julia to x86 libraries from the GPUCompiler.jl folks but I didn’t expect to see Julia working on an Arduino any time soon.
With some kind of basic GC support (even if just using a bump allocator) it seems like a good fraction of the language could actually be available. Most tight loops hopefully don’t allocate so it would mostly just be necessary for creating initial arrays and mutable structs. |

Yeah, this was mostly an experiment to see what kinds of problems I run into - I didn't expect this to actually work out! It's still very finicky, relying on LLVM to remove dead runtime calls and so on, but non-allocating stuff with immutables should work, though I haven't actually tested it.
