I was wondering if an stm32h7 could run open source calculator Firmware epsilon, i would need to rewrite an interface layer, and don't want to work for days so i can find out that the stm32 is not strong enough.

The original hardware appears to be 'F7, so in theory, the "more capable" 'H7 should be OK. Devil is in the details, though.

Why can't you simply use the 'F7 as is in the original?

Perhaps something to be asking the Numworks team?

Perhaps see what other MCU based boards it has been ported to, and use that as a gauge to the capabilities required.

I'd imagine the STM32H7 would be sufficiently capable, having memory resources, and a double precision math coprocessor.

I didn't know that it was an r7, i couldn't find the specific specs online. I will use the r7.
