That said, here are some thoughts:

12/13/2022, 5:13 PMThe virtual machine/language and hardware is already quite decoupled. Toit runs on Linux, Macos, Windows, and ESP32.

12/13/2022, 5:13 PMThe biggest challenge is to make primitives work; and in that context the event system.

12/13/2022, 5:14 PMYou can see, that Toit uses epoll on Linux, kqueue on BSD (macOS), and ev_queue for the ESP32: https://github.com/toitlang/toit/tree/master/src/event_sources
