Isn't that basically Go's whole thing? It has syntax that is really close to C, Go style co-routines (obviously), and I believe it has good JSON support. You do have to use a GC and you lose some of the really low level bits but I would wager most C programs don't need to have no GC and be able to do the really low level stuff. The ones that do probably don't need the goroutines and JSON and stuff.
I have an embedded project with an RTOS for things you would do with coroutines, CBOR and JSON handling. I would not appreciate a garbage collector when it came time to debug a dumb pointer or overflow error.
Doing it in C obviously. I can’t really consider Go embedded because I’m maxing the chip out now in C without including a Go VM or whatever you call it.
