[…]my team investigated several options to support Python 3.x in UEFI boot services. Because firmware is a constrained environment compared to OS runtime, we evaluated porting MicroPython to UEFI. MicroPython is a Python 3 variant designed for microcontrollers, with memory and size optimizations that make it ideal for pre-OS applications. […] Supporting Python 3.x & MicroPython in open source creates new opportunities for the TianoCore community to validate robust firmware solutions.[…]
