Could you build this?
Partial A visual block editor and simulator are buildable, but generating correct, real-time firmware for supported microcontrollers and drivers for their peripherals requires embedded systems expertise and hardware testing.
What it would actually take: Architecture would be a block-diagram editor that compiles function-block graphs into C or a bytecode for a small runtime, with a simulator that executes the same graph on the host. Real-time scheduling, peripheral drivers, memory limits and per-board ports need embedded firmware engineers and physical hardware to validate. The simulator-first design is the realistic path.
