Seems unlikely to be a bait and switch at this point
Toit is a language for writing scripts on your computer and applications on your ESP32. A readable syntax, an efficient runtime, and tools that work together.
Free and open source. Maintained by volunteers.
They should write this prominently on their website. It doesn’t radiate trustworthiness/substance/reputation. Also performance and resource requirements should be prominent when targets are MCUs.
Is there some kind of an advertising blurb for why you’d want to use Toit, especially for scripting? I think the only thing I saw was “a readable language”, but I’d probably consider Python more readable than it judging from the examples.
DNS blackhole the domain and run.

Most importantly though (/s), is this toit as in "roof" in French, toit as in "to it", or otherwise?
"toit like a tiger"

Nice syntax. It looks like how we'd design programming if C had never existed.
Because if not, that might explain the lack of marketing around it.
