lisp-cheney
A mini Lisp in 1k lines of C with Cheney's copying garbage collector, explained. Includes over 40 built-in Lisp primitives, floating point, strings, closures with lexical scope, macros, proper tail recursion, exceptions, execution tracing, file loading, a copying garbage collector and REPL.

Microcontroller-based Lisp machine (minimum language needed)?
Lately, we run Robert van Engelen's 1k Lisp on ESP32 and 8266 boards: https://github.com/Robert-van-Engelen/lisp but we started on his tiny Lisp: https://github.com/Robert-van-Engelen/tinylisp (which is 99 lines of C)
