Did somebody consider porting espruino for the Particle Photon / Electron ( https://www.particle.io/prototype ) ? They have an STM32F205 MCU and the Electron comes with a 2G or 3G modem that supports TLS on its own. Thus, many people may want to use it for IoT scenarios. Having an espruino port would provide a lot of flexibility with regard to what to connect with. I've seen that the "Viper" project ( http://doc.viperize.it/board.viper.particle_photon/r0.3.2/ ) reflashes the devices to run Python - so the "reflash" path should be open in general.
Are there experiences with other STM32F2 devices also maybe?
best regards

Hi Gordon,
many thanks for your feedback!
exactly, I think the Electron MCU - modem link is just via a UART using the (open, well documented) AT command set. I'm not that keen on a Photon port (as there are many alternatives in this space) - but for the Electron - I perceive it as basically just the "pure MCU" and using the 2G/3G modem would then just be done "in userland" (not even a need to expose it via the espruino NW API initially).
