toit VS adventofcode

It uses toit, a high-level language, and is thus quite easy to learn. At the same time it's an order of magnitude faster than micropython.

We have been faced with the same question and decided to open-source pretty much all of our product (https://github.com/toitlang/toit).

I also really like MicroPython! Having said that, I have been working on an alternative to it for a number of years now -- primarily to provide a more robust and performant high-level alternative to C and Rust on the ESP32-family of chips:

I'd love to pick your brain and fully understand your experience with MicroPython. I've been doing programming languages for a number of years now, and I find that it is incredibly useful to understand what developers appreciate (and dislike) about the available stacks.

Thank you for the mention!

I have been working on the Toit language for the ESP32 for a number of years now -- and it has been an enjoyable challenge to build an open source stack capable of supporting live reloading on a micro-controller that can run for years on batteries.

We use it for some of our tools, so it's possible (and works nicely). Our LSP server was initially written in Toit: https://github.com/toitlang/toit/tree/master/tools/lsp/serve...

The only code differs for two parts is as follows - https://github.com/bhosale-ajay/adventofcode/blob/master/2023/ts/D07.test.ts - under 80 lines.

Easy day TypeScript, P1 - Brute Force, P2 - Formula

[LANGUAGE: TypeScript] Github - Under 40 lines, all parts running under 8ms.

[LANGUAGE: TypeScript] TypeScript - Running under 30ms (both parts)

F# This year I solved puzzles using TypeScript as well as F# - Day 18, 19, and 22 TBD

F# - After looking at some Python solution calculated the position of blizzard for nth time instead of maintaining the grid, which makes it easier with F#.
