PicoLisp is an open source Lisp dialect. It is based on LLVM and compiles and runs on any 64-bit POSIX system. Its most prominent features are simplicity and minimalism. (by Seteeri)
tinylisp
Lisp in 99 lines of C and how to write one yourself. Includes 20 Lisp primitives, garbage collection and REPL. Includes tail-call optimized versions for speed and reduced memory use. (by Robert-van-Engelen)

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.

What makes a language easy for writing a parser?
LISP has a very simple and consistent syntax, so much so that a basic interpreter can be done in only 99 lines of C.

Function overloading - Surprise!
I needed a scripting language for an old-school Sierra On-Line adventure game engine I'm working on and was looking at learning writing simple compilers / interpreters, when I stumbled across tinylisp and realized it was exactly what I needed.

Writing a lisp
Tinylisp can be a good starting point. The writeup explains how it works and how to add more features.

C/C++/Rust developers, what kind of projects you work on?
I've been on a bit of a retro-coding binge lately, using SDL2 for screen, I/O, and audio. For one project I replicated an NES-style sprite engine and a phase-modulated synthesizer for audio, but right now I'm currently porting tinylisp over to C++ for use in an old-school Sierra-style adventure game engine as the scripting language.

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)
