Is it possible to run Arduino on a Particle Photon?

I want complete software control over the device so I can connect it to the internet and do stuff without going through Particle's cloud, logins, etc.

I found several F1 cores, but no F2 cores yet. –  Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams May 22 at 18:39
    
Hi @IgnacioVazquez-Abrams - I'm very new to this stuff overall. I'm not looking to do any custom electronics (soldering/breadboards/shields) work, just software development. What are these cores and what do they mean in regards to whether I can run Arduino or not? –  sscirrus May 22 at 18:55
    
A core is a shim between the Arduino libraries and the underlying hardware. Without one you won't be able to use the IDE or any of the Arduino libraries with the board. –  Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams May 22 at 19:01
    
@IgnacioVazquez-Abrams OK, so how good/bad is it that you've found 'several' F1 cores but no F2 cores? –  sscirrus May 22 at 21:40
    
It means that it may be possible to create a F2 core, but that it has not been done. –  Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams May 22 at 21:42
