A few more bullet points to encourage readers to have a look at Toit:
reply- Faster than Python. Depending on the benchmark up to x10.
- Can be compiled to executables. Currently `-o` just takes an interpreter and attaches the bytecodes, but Kasper also started experimenting with native output.
- Cleaner base. Objects aren't just hashtables. This can be seen as a downside as well (making the language less flexible), but in my book it's a win.
- The `--named=value` syntax is just a winner :)
> The `--named=value` syntax is just a winner
replyThe "--" seems so unnecessary though. Wouldn't "name=" be sufficient to signal a named parameter? Or maybe Toit has expressions that use "=".
We probably could have made it work without the `--`. Coming from Posix, the `--` feels natural, and it also allows for code completion.
replyGood luck running (micro)python on an ESP32.
replyLua exists :)
