lisp VS aulang

I've been curious about https://github.com/ezekiiel/lust but I don't know its status as a project

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 :)

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!

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.

Apart from the language I also built a simple website for Aument, a JSON parser in Aument and incomplete bindings for libuv.

Since last month, I've added a lot of changes to my programming language, now named Aument, namely classes, method dispatching and the module system.

I've been lurking here for a while, but never actually created a Reddit account. So, as a first post, hi! This month I'm working on aulang, it aims to be a portable and embeddable dynamic scripting language like Python or Lua. It is prepreprepreprepre alpha so don't expect it to be that amazing, but it has the bare minimum features and the language can even be compiled to native code through C (currently only works on Linux).
