The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Roc – A fast, friendly, functional language
Carp - https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp - "A statically typed lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications." where it's "Ownership tracking enables a functional programming style while still using mutation of cache-friendly data structures under the hood".

Ask HN: Looking for statically typed, No-GC and compiled Lisp/scheme
Looking for a personal project so open-source would be great, but maturity/production readiness is not really a factor.
The only significant thing i can find so far is https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp.
Anything notable that i might have missed ?

Lisp in Space
Not CL, but there is ulisp (http://www.ulisp.com/) for microcontrollers, supposed to be really tiny, and there is Carp (https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp) which is without a GC so seems suitable for real-time stuff.

Yet nobody questions ABAP, Lua, Julia, Groovy or Scala, both of them are under Lisp in TIOBE Index

Emerging Rust GUI libraries in a WASM world
Everybody is trying to make a more user-friendly Rust. The problem is that it is not clear yet whether that's possible, and if it is, how it may look. I know Vale and have tried it, though it's extremely early to judge anything so far. It does have a much stronger theoretical background than V, but even the theory is not completely clear at this point.
There is also Carp by the way: https://github.com/carp-lang/Carp

Bare minimum atw-style K interpreter for learning purposes
Rust’s macro system is safe and hygienic, people have implemented lisps in it. I just did a google search to find an example, so I have no idea how well supported this is, https://github.com/JunSuzukiJapan/macro-lisp

In theory, is it possible to bundle a rust-to-rust transpiler with rustc in order to make "breaking" language changes, without actually breaking anything? And how would you prove the accuracy of such a system?
Rust macros can make the language look like anything, even lisp: https://github.com/JunSuzukiJapan/macro-lisp

Lisp as an Alternative to Java
Why not get the best (?) of both worlds with the macro-lisp crate: https://github.com/JunSuzukiJapan/macro-lisp
A small snippet from the project's examples shows minimal boilerplate between Rust and a native-looking Lisp experience:

Sharing Saturday #353
After that, I'm going to go back to working on adding some scripting. My attempts at making a Lisp in Rust failed spectacularly, but when trying to find a ready made replacement that's not too big (so not RustPython and not Rhai or Dyon) I found mentions of DSL, which are usually Rust macros, which led me to https://github.com/JunSuzukiJapan/macro-lisp (single file, circa 400 lines, that does basically the whole job I want, i.e. being able to call Rust functions when I need them, e.g. from an in-game console)
What are some alternatives?
