Seems like a good option for hardware devices like routers, firewall appliances, ... This won't be the next agile, ninja hacker, 1337 web development platform. But it could have it's own niche of the market.

> his won't be the next agile, ninja hacker, 1337

I remember words like "hacker" and "1337" being used to refer to people who did reverse engineering, participated in the demoscene or just defaced websites for fun. My, how the tables have turned.

I'm just using random hipster words to show how I feel about those web frameworks. It's a miracle I didn't tag it #YoloSwag
Do you remember ninja hackers do that?
Even stuff like that has enough memory to run something like Tcl or Lua though, which are likely to be a bit safer.
I'd love if it was in my routers, the currently consumer-level routers are so bad I have to purchase based on whether I can replace the firmware with OpenWRT.
