Lisp to JavaScript Compiler
Read OriginalThe article describes the author's experience creating a Lisp-to-JavaScript compiler as a ~280-line Rust project. It explains the chosen Lisp dialect, key language forms (atoms, arithmetic, control flow, lambdas), the parsing process using an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST), and the use of the `pom` parser combinator library. The technical walkthrough includes code snippets and insights into the compiler's design and development challenges.
