Espruino is a JavaScript interpreter for low-power Microcontrollers. This site is both a support community for Espruino and a place to share what you are working on.

Well, we might have changed it, but I do not remember when. A while ago most probably.
I understand you can compile JavaScript code to C. But it is not valid JavaScript anymore, it is a subset of JavaScript. But a cool feature non-the-less...It lets you do things with very small devices if you are willing to do it "the Espruino way".
low.js uses DukTape, but we've added a small JIT layer (does not optimize that much, however). And we try to become 100% Node.JS. We hope to get some people in the industry use it for industrial automation and things like that. A few customers we already have here.
All in all, I agree on your comparison.
