    I would love to use golang for this but it’s standard library alone is bigger than the amount of available RAM.

      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")
        }
