    Interesting, since golang only includes the parts of the stdlib that are used in the executable binary.

      I just tested it and a simple hello world program still produces a 1.7MiB binary, while the device only has 512KiB of RAM.

      package main
      
      import "fmt"
      
      func main() {
          fmt.Println("hello world")
      }

        Strip the debug info, should be a lot smaller. Also check out TinyGo, it’s meant for embedded devices
