Petite Lisp is a Lisp dialect designed to be extremely simple to learn and use. It is highly opinionated and I will try not to shift its original style as I move further. Currently I plan to transpile Petite Lisp into Javascript, but in the future I might add more options.
Note that Petite Lisp is still in development, so there are still a lot of things missing and bugs, and you should expect the syntax or standard libraries changed often.
- Clone this repo.
- Install necessary packages with
npm install. - Compile the compiler with
npx tsc.
Then, in your console, type:
node plisp --input input.plisp --output output.js
An output.js file will appear which contains the Javascript code which you can run:
node output

(Not in order)
- Closures and scope.
- Error handling.
- Modules.
- Custom bindings.
- Improve concurrency.
- Improve the CLI.
- Ensure no undefined is possible:
- Currently arguments of callbacks can still be undefined if the user allows define more args than what the caller from the stdlib would pass values to.
- Finish the docs.
- Better compiler errors.
