I like ECL for its ability to compile Lisp to C and have a native executable. One dream I have is to write a game using the CL-SDL2 bindings and cross compile it for Wasm; It seems possible to do now but the flow isn't very well defined. I got pretty close hacking around a month or two ago but didn't quite finish.

That's why the support is "preliminary". I plan to write some compelling examples for the emscripten target. Here is a "raw" build that shows repl (on some browsers results of evaluation show in the javascript console): http://turtleware.eu/static/ecl/ecl.html http://turtleware.eu/static/ecl/ecl.html -- this is a little older build, but following instructions in INSTALL will get you to the same place.

Historically it's been hamstrung by wasm's lack of tail call elimination, but that appears to have been merged: https://v8.dev/blog/wasm-tail-call https://v8.dev/blog/wasm-tail-call
