  • simp

    A Simplistic Programming Language (by phillbush)

  • Hi, I'm implementing a Lisp language in C, whose basic mean of combination is the vector, not the pair (although you can use a two-element vector as a pair). More information here.

  • gmp-wasm

    Fork of the GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library (GMP), suitable for compilation into WebAssembly.

  • I definitely suggest implementing fixnums with pointer tagging. It's fun and useful. To begin with, just signal an error on overflow, and then move on to actually implementing bignums once the basics work. Unless you specifically want to have zero dependencies, I'd use gmp for bignums, as it can be pretty tricky to implement by hand.

  • janet

    A dynamic language and bytecode vm

  • If you want some inspiration for things like API design or runtime stuff, Janet is a small LISP with arrays instead of pairs to take a look at.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
