hi folks, FYI: together with
@SerVB we work on transpiling Kotlin to Python (technically, a new Kotlin backend). Using Kotlin on embedded systems is a great use case for this project - I realized it myself, when I started playing with my STM32-based board 🙂 if you want to learn more and/or support us, please head to:
• the repo:

• related YouTrack issue:

To sum up the status: it's not usable yet, but we got some nice momentum and with our current pace and about a year, it might become a real thing!
