I am not a compiler engineer, but I want to tease apart this statement. As I understand, the main Rust compiler uses LLVM framework which uses an intermediate language that is somewhat like platform independent assembly code. As long as you can write a lexer/parser to generate the intermediate language, there will be a separate backend to generate machine code from the intermediate language. In my (non-compiler-engineer) mind, separates the concern of front-end language (Rust) from target platform (embedded). Do you agree? Or do I misunderstand?
