Yeah, it's a completely different runtime. I think the purists might argue that it's a completely different language, but it feels similar enough that you don't get too upset about the occasional language feature that doesn't work.
I remember using time.Format(time.RFC3339) in a project once. Seemed impossible to have such convenience on a microcontroller, and I probably paid a lot for it, but it did work perfectly.
- rahen 4y agoIf performance is adequate (say 1/3 of C, or 10x faster than Python), this is a big deal. It means we get a simple, nicely designed language with a great standard library, short development times, and small, performant binaries once compiled. Go on MCUs was out of question because of its runtime size. I'll keep an eye on this.
