Hey all! ESP32 beginner here, looking for a little advice
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.

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

Rust on Espressif chips – 2023 Roadmap
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:
https://github.com/toitlang/toit
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.

ESP32 Buyer’s Guide: Different Chips, Firmware, Sensors
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.

Screen-free coding for children: the xylophone maze
and https://codecombat.com, which has been around for a while now.
I think this paradigm (navigating a character using "move" function invocations) is good but kind of exhausts its usefulness after a while. I question whether my daughter learns coding this way or just is playing a turn based top down platformer. The most code like thing is when you use 'loops' to have characters repeat sequences of moves. I think when kids grok these things these apps become just types of glofiried education flavoured video games. There are a lot of things in kodable for instance that I feel are just basic web games with coding terms slapped on it.
https://scratch.mit.edu/ is more like 'programming' imo, even at the level of the objective -- having a blank canvas to create something. It seems a little advanced for my kids right now though.

Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?
+1 Scratch! My son started with it, then expanded into Roblox/Lua.
Children can download other people's games and experiment there. Scratch also has pre-made art, sounds, music.

Ask HN: Best tools for 4/5 year old to learn programming?
I'm looking for the best systems to help a 4/5 year old get the basics of programming. My daughter has shown interest in what I do, and loves puzzles and building things. Looking for something visual and fun that can start her down the path of logic and creating with computers.
I have a passing familiarity with Scratch [1], which I'm now looking into more, but am hoping others can share their knowledge and experience in this area.
