I work in the IoT space and I have yet to read anything, credible or
otherwise, that BASIC may be useful in that market. C, C++, Python and
Micro Python, Go (Flogo framework), JavaScript (Node-Red framework), and
Elixir/Erlang (Nerves framework) are credible choices. I find the
Elixir/Erlang stack the most interesting of the lot.
