For the LISP 1.5 mainframe fans here...
this WebAssembly implementation has everything except floating point arithmetic https://github.com/zick/IchigoLisp

I want to make a toy LISP
Ichigo does just that in an attempt at a faithful recreation of LISP 1.5. Seems to detail it more here, but you'll have to rely on a translation assuming you don't understand Japanese.

WASI: A New Kind of System Interface
Maybe it's by design, but my biggest sticking point with WASM is the inability to modify the code at runtime, at least to my knowledge. This makes it a bad target for dynamic languages where the source -> executable mapping isn't wholly known ahead of time, especially Lisps but also any looking to JIT compile things.
Speaking of Lisp and WASM, IchigoLisp [0] is a remarkably faithful implementation of LISP 1.5 in WAT. Extraordinarily impressive, and inspires even more awe for the original system from the 60s.
