minus-squareqazOPlink8•1 year agoI would love to use golang for this but it’s standard library alone is bigger than the amount of available RAM.
minus-square@gredolink2•1 year agoInteresting, since golang only includes the parts of the stdlib that are used in the executable binary.
minus-squareqazOPlink4•1 year agoI 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") }
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•1 year agoStrip the debug info, should be a lot smaller. Also check out TinyGo, it’s meant for embedded devices
minus-square@mkwtlink2•1 year agoLikely your C++ implementation also doesn’t ship the full standard library. And you may even turn off exceptions and RTTI.

BTW: what are you using instead to get small binaries/scripts?
I’m currently using C++
