How to Program MicroPython on an embedded system?

Can you provide more information about what you're trying to do?

What sort of embedded system (Cortex M, Raspberry Pi, embedded Linux, etc), what do you mean by "program micropython" (i.e. build/flash firmware, write python code, etc).

Thank You Jimmo.

Traditionally, embedded system(operating system) development is more likely to use C / C++. MicroPython is normally used for testing/ Prototyping, as MicroPython is gaining popularity and it is easy to master, so I am thinking about if programming C language on an embedded system is not available for average developers, how about program MicroPython on embedded system?

Yes, you can absolutely use MicroPython for more than just testing/prototyping, right up to building real products. There are many examples of companies doing exactly this.

One of the main limitations I'm aware of is if locking down access to the firmware is important (i.e. to prevent people being able to access your source code), but depending on your target architecture and design this might not be an issue.

Micropython is brilliant for embedded solutions. Specially for custom made things where you use standard modules and "just" tweak them.
My company is using C or PicBasic Pro for embedded solutions for our main product lines and Micropython for the IOT part. The ESP32 and ESP8266 modules are super easy to use with Micropython. For quick proof of concepts and prototypes Micropython wins every time, fast easy and super powerful.

Jimmo is totally correct, the security part is not that secure (not at all more or less) but in an open source company that is less of a problem. For more security Epoxy is your friend It will never be possible to get 100% security, you can just make them work more or less for it.
