Repetier firmware for TI Tiva C Launchpad (ARM Cortex-M4F)

Hello.

I have Kossel Mini delta-printer with arduino mega 2560 + ramps 1.4 with Repetier firmware. I'm looking for faster ARM-based solutions (Arduino DUE, Smoothieboard and so on), but I have Texas Instruments launchpads (Tiva C and Stellaris). Tiva C launchpad just for $13 contains TI TM4C123GH6PM ARM Cortex-M4F microcontroller with FPU, 80MHz clock, 256 KB flash, 32 KB RAM and with many peripheral devices (USB support, UART, I2C, SPI, >40 GPIO and so on). Also, this micro-controller supported by Arduino-like 'Energia' with support of processing c++ code like Arduino.

Is it possible to port Repetier Arduino Due firmware to this Tiva C launchpad? I am C++ programmer, but I'm not very familiar with programming microcontrollers.

    Yes, firmware is made to be portable across Arduino compatible devices, also there is only a limited numbe rof arduino functions used. All hardware adaptions are done in HAL.h/cpp plus fastio.h. See due tree as an example.
