Hello @danicampora, are there any plans to support frozen bytecode in Wipy?
Best Regards, Robert

I'd also be interested to know if it's in the roadmap for the ESP8266. It's an awesome feature!

For the WiPy it wont help much with RAM use reduction, because the frozen code still needs to live in the RAM as part of the firmware.

For the ESP8266, yes we will eventually get to enabling frozen bytecode, once the core features have been implemented and are working fully :)

Thanks Damien. I should have had a glance at the CC3200 data sheet before asking. But at least, precompiled code is some advantage, and that's possible.
