The most important catalyst for improving the support for new 
platforms (embedded, IoT, mobile, you name it) is good continuous 
integration (CI). None of the major free CI providers (TravisCI, 
CircleCI, SemaphoreCI, AppVeyor, etc,) provide non-x86 runners. 
The only option (at least AFAIK) is software emulation with QEMU, 
though I haven't looked much into it (yet).
