Ulisp is cute but (when I looked at it a while back) way too limited and inefficient. My favourite Lisp of this type is Hedgehog, which should run very nicely on a Pi Pico. Its main drawback is it has no REPL, but instead uses a separate byte-compiler that for some reason is written in C.

- naruhodo 5y agoHow does it compare to Ferret? <https://ferret-lang.org/ https://ferret-lang.org/>
- throwaway81523 5y agoNever heard of Ferret before. Hedgehog is bytecode interpreted and garbage collected while Ferret looks to be trans-compiled and tries to run without a GC. So I'd say they aren't trying to do the same thing. Hedgehog by now may be a little bit obsolete, since we have things like Micro Python. It is still pretty cool though.
