# simple-stackless-lisp
A small but powerful Clojure-like Lisp.
Has first class continuations and macros.
Data oriented and [super polymorphic](examples/polymorphism.sclj).
This is a **Work In Progress**, and there is [more to come](docs/vision.md)!
**NOTE:** Docs might not always be up to date, since the language is in heavy development.
## Example
```clojure
;; examples/fact.sclj
(def fact
(fn [n]
(if (< n 2)
1
(* n (fact (- n 1))))))
(println "(fact 50000) =>")
(println (fact 50000))
```
More [code examples](examples/) are available.
There's also a [User Manual](docs/manual.md).
## Usage
### Download
You can find pre-compiled executables [here](https://github.com/divs1210/simple-stackless-lisp/releases/latest).
### Start a REPL
```
$ ./sclj
```
Use `rlwrap` for a more pleasant REPL experience:
```
$ rlwrap ./sclj
```
### Run a file
```
$ ./sclj code.sclj
```
## Build from source
[The manual](docs/manual.md) contains more info on building and running the interpreter.
## Thanks
[Lisperator's technique](https://lisperator.net/pltut/cps-evaluator/) for building a stackless interpreter led me down this rabbit hole.
