Crisp

Crisp is one of Lisp dialect which is based on mal and implemented with Crystal. This project is a toy box for my dynamic language ideas.

So Many Tasks

• Refactorings
  • [ ] Make is_a? guards more elegant
  • [ ] Import test cases from Mal
  • [x] Add CI
  • [x] More OOP (evaluator, remove global variable, move states into object)
  • [x] Use standard readline implementation
  • [ ] Better lexer and parser
  • [ ] Add examples
  • [ ] More convenient REPL (e.g. completion)
• New language features using Crystal's semantics
  • [ ] Algebraic data type
  • ...

Installation

1. Install crystal command
2. Run shards install for installing dependencies
3. Run crystal build /path/to/Crisp/crisp.cr to build an executable (add --release for the release build)
4. Put the built crisp executable in a $PATH directory

Examples

Please see mal test cases for now.

Development Environment

• macOS or Linux
• Crystal 0.33.0 or later
