Feasibility of ST25DV Arduino chip porting library to Raspberry PI

I'd really like to bring this chip to my raspberry pi zero build (python3). The chip is Arduino, I have no experience with Arduino. Any ideas on the possibilities of getting this to work with my raspberry pi build? How long would it take for someone to do the library conversion? Would they need the chip as well?
thanks!!!

EDIT: Adafruit sells this device on a breakout: https://www.adafruit.com/product/4701
Caveat:
There's no Python or CircuitPython library for this chip at this time, only Arduino.
IMO: I find it far easier to build Arduino projects with "arduino'ish" hardware and send the output to Rpi for data-grinding, history, trending, and such... just format the serial output of the Arduino into JSON and a product like NodeRED can create professional dashboards and even provide a free webserver.

As you are using Python 3, you may find a tidbit or two in the article:
https://realpython.com/arduino-python/

Adafruit covers the basics of porting Arduino libs to Python:

There is (was) some interest in the Arduino forum:
