I just talked about this with one of our researchers… he mentioned that it will be nice if we can run Julia on Polarfire SOC: [https://www.microchip.com/en-us/development-tool/mpfs-icicle-kit-es](https://www.microchip.com/en-us/development-tool/mpfs-icicle-kit-es) and maybe offload some of the computations on the FPGA fabric.

Unfortunately as now only @alexfanqi is working on a RISC-V port of Julia: [https://github.com/alexfanqi/julia/blob/master/doc/src/devdocs/build/riscv.md](https://github.com/alexfanqi/julia/blob/master/doc/src/devdocs/build/riscv.md) . Thinking to help, but I’m not a compiler expert and I have no idea who knows compiler either

Some previous discussions:
