Imagine trying to make some sort of MP3 player using an MCU. You’d be able to use MicroPython for the controls, but for decoding you won’t be able to get away with it, and you’ll need something like C/C++/Rust.

Like in the home computing days, you could use inline Assembly for the decoding loop.

We used DATA blocks, now they can use @micropython.asm_thum.
