Will Python support Huawei HarmonyOS Platform natively?

Huawei will launch its first PC product equipped with the HarmonyOS operating system on May 19th.
In this context, we would like to inquire whether Python will have native support (natively supported without additional layers) for this platform in the coming future?
Please let us know.

Unless compatible with a currently supported platform, no. See PEP 11 – CPython platform support | peps.python.org for info on platform support.

I imagine that Huawei themselves are the best people to start work on this (at least if they want to it happen soon)

If it has a modern web browser, I would have thought HarmonyOS can run Python in Pyodide.

Natively, perhaps there’s an implementation of Python written in Typescript?

  • ArkTS is the preferred main programming language for application development in HarmonyOS. eTS is a superset of TypeScript.

Otherwise it mentions a JavaUI too. Perhaps Jython can be ported.

The microkernel design is interesting. Is there a Python for Redox OS?
