marie VS lisp

I made a language and the language now can make instances:

$ git clone https://github.com/lechatthecat/oran.git $ cd oran $ cargo build --release $ ./target/release/oran -f ./examples/hello.orn $ ./target/release/oran -f ./examples/example.orn

You can see many other random dirty examples in https://github.com/lechatthecat/oran/blob/master/examples/example.orn You can run it by:

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.
