If you're considering embedded OS options, please look at these two (completely free) projects from the Linux Foundation:

Yocto project creates a custom embedded distro based on your needs https://www.yoctoproject.org/

Zephyr supports hardware that can't easily run Linux https://www.zephyrproject.org/

Sure, try to run those on e.g. TI CC3200 microcontroller.

Yocto does not seem to support CC3200.

That's right, cause Linux cannot run on the large class of microcontrollers - particularly, those with less than 4M of RAM. Mongoose OS is targeting that category.

Zephyr is an open source OS that targets smaller microcontrollers.
