ulisp-zero VS janet

Since its name is TinyLisp, I'd like to mention uLisp.

Lisp for microcontrollers - Arduino, Adafruit M0/M4, Micro:bit, ESP8266/32, RISC-V, and Teensy 4.x boards

http://www.ulisp.com/

In particular, its smallest variant (~800 LoC).

> uLisp Zero is a pared-down version of uLisp, capable of running in 8 Kbytes of program memory with 1 Kbyte of RAM

And there is of course the amazing Janet as well: https://janet-lang.org/

I’ve tried under Linux on a C program I know, the Janet language interpreter: ``` git clone https://github.com/Leedehai/C-include-2-dot.git cd C-include-2-dot/ git clone https://github.com/janet-lang/janet.git ./cinclude2dot --include=janet/src/include --src=janet/src >janet.dot

I feel most "at home" in Common Lisp, though I agree that Scheme is more elegant. Speaking of elegant I recently had some fun playing around with Janet (https://janet-lang.org) and I have to say it is quite nice.

If I had to pick a language to stay in forever and I had the time to really grow it into what I wanted using C extensions I'd probably choose Janet (or make my own similar lisp).

Like most people, though, I have a day job and until I decide to retire I won't have time to reinvent an entire personal programming system for myself. For pure "get in there and have fun" sessions after work Common Lisp gets my vote despite its clunkiness. And besides... it's a lisp! If something's too clunky I'll just fix it.

Also Janet, fennel, edn, DSL that kmonad folks use.

for systems programming I'd recommend taking a look at Janet

I'm targeting Janet because my starting language shares a lot of commonalities with lisp even though superficially it looks pretty different, and I want something compiled, and I like writing in Schemes and Lisps.
