I'm a bit sceptical. 


http://enclosejs.com explains some of the challenges in compiling JavaScript.

Also on the smaller platforms like Arduino do have http://www.espruino.com but are quite limited in memory size so you really need to know what you are doing.

Have you tried the Arduino example on http://nectar-lang.com ?

Its weight is 5ko and you can flash your Arduino (avrdude) with it

I'm pretty sure the Arduino example works, as it looks quite similar to Arduino code. Now what would be interesting is if the hello world example would compile for Arduino (eg. Console.log being handled by a serial.write)

With the NectarJS client it compiles, I will update the web demo to make it also work in the browser
