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

You can already have both: https://github.com/JunSuzukiJapan/macro-lisp

"RIIR"
Via a lisp macro?

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?
When comparing union and macro-lisp you can also consider the following projects:
patty - A pattern matching library for Nim
Carp - A statically typed lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications.
Kind2 - A next-gen functional language [Moved to: https://github.com/Kindelia/Kind]
innit - A roguelike game where you play a micro organism inside a larger organism!
nimtraits - Automatic trait implementation for nim types
aplus - A+ Programming Language
paren-face - A face dedicated to lisp parentheses
