I would like to port euphoria backend to an embedded platform, say PIC32MX microcontroller, which one is MIPS M4K based (32 bits). How would I proceed? I cloned the repo locally but then? This is bare metal, there is no OS, not even a kernel executive, so there is a lot of extraneous stuff not needed. No machine call, no pcre, no float and double, only integer math. What would be consisered a good pratice? I am tempted to clean out all those conditionnals that clutters the source code.
Do I create a branch? or a new repo with a different name? Considering the final result will be very different from the original.
I would create a branch. This way, it should still be relatively easy to get other fixes / changes that people push into the trunk into your code.
