Arduino and Python or gcc compiler?

Show all headers | View raw

I am getting the Elegoo Super Starter Kit (Arduino Uno R3) to tinker 
with (it's on order as of when I'm writing this post).

I looked in the Debian repos for stuff on Arduino and didn't find much 
(at least not of interest to me).

I did download the IDE from Elegoo and their tutorials and libraries. 
But it's all in C/C++. While I do know C and C++ (to some extent), I'm 
very bad at it (I admit to not using it very much, maybe once every 
other blue moon and lately we haven't had any blue moons that warranted 
using C).

I recently been doing stuff in Python (especially for work, which is not 
Arduino related in any way). I am really getting to like Python. I have 
created my own Python Libraries for other things (again unrelated) and 
even compiled them to .so (binary) using the 'cython' compiler.

While I could create C source of a Python script using cython, I don't 
know how to compile the resulting C source and upload it to the Arduino 
board. I would like to use gcc.

Is there a cross-platform compiler for Arduino and gcc that anyone has 
had experience with that works or they can recommend?

Or some way to program in Python?

I'll use C/C++ until I can figure the Python stuff out. But I really 
would like to be able to use Python at some point.
