Clojure sorta runs on it. It has various issues, but is usable. It's nice having a repl into your phone.

- mjn 12y agoThere's also a commercial ($200) Common Lisp implementation that targets Android (and iOS): https://wukix.com/mocl https://wukix.com/mocl Somewhat different setup though. Instead of a Java-replacement language on top of a JVM, I believe it's compiling to native code. The intention seems to be to target "logic-heavy" apps where a smaller portion of the code is UI. You still write the UI in each platform's "normal" way (Java on Android, Obj-C on iOS), but call out to Lisp for the real work. I'm not 100% sure on this part, but I believe that's done on Android via the NDK route, not Dalvik/ART. No idea what happens on iOS.
