June 2021 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
Since last month I've been working on garbage collection and string handling in my Lisp compiler. I've found writing the garbage collector to be hard but strings are fun :)

May 2021 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
I just added variable-arity functions to my lisp which compiles to Cranelift. I was blocked for a while trying to work out how to convince Cranelift to put arguments on the stack but eventually gave up and I now heap allocate a location for function arguments. It's not great for performance but it feels great to have finally finished it!

February 2021 monthly "What are you working on?" thread
I’ve been carrying on working on compiling my lisp this month. It’s been a fun couple weeks because I’ve finally gotten to the fun stuff like higher order functions, closures, and adding the ability to call into libc.

Orion 1.0.0 release on a VM !
Code and documentation are here: https://github.com/orion-lang/orion
- I switched my language from a tree walk interpreter to a VM, and speed was multiplied by 19.

Vim Lisp, a LISP like language created to make Vim configuration more pleasant to do.
When my language VM will be finished, I plan to make this project a library of it. It is not a real LISP, I picked the syntax in Scheme and concepts from OCaml, but I think it could be good for that use case.

Orion, a purely functionnal Lisp written in Rust.
Might be because it uses a tree-walking interpreter.
If I am reading the source right, it copies everything, which is not really beneficial for performance.
