- eterps 10y agoOberon is more academic in nature. In the past some applications built with Oberon/F were commercially used. Oberon was one of the influences of the Go language.

CFB Software, an Australian company, exists since 1997 selling Oberon compilers for ARM Cortex-M3, Cortex-M4, Cortex-M7 Microcontrollers and Xilinx FPGA Systems. http://www.astrobe.com/default.htm http://www.astrobe.com/default.htm Systems programming language with GC support, running on tiny device boards.
