Interesting project! I have been wondering why there isn’t a LISP on top of LLVM yet (except Common Lisp port, Clasp). Good that someone started to work on this

- mark_l_watson 4y agoJank looks like a project to check in on its status a few times a year, exciting possibilities. For your thinking about Clasp and alternatives for Common Lisp: I don’t think there is a gap to be filled with Common Lisp deployment. For free, build SBCL from source enabling heap saves compression. Then creating SBCL Common Lisp apps produces a fairly small app size, easy to build and distribute. Or, pay for something like LispWorks and creating compact standalone applications is perhaps even easier.
