Hyperlisp

Hyperlisp is an web scripting language alternative to JavaScript. It is inspired by Dylan Beattie's The Web That Never Was.

Repl

You can try out Hyperlisp in your terminal. To run, you will need Zig 0.14 (currently the dev version) and readline.

zig build run

See the tutorial for a more in deprth look at the synatx and semantics.

Web

Since Hyperlisp is a (hypothetical) replacement for JavaScript, the primary target is Web/Grid browsers. Since browsers do not natively support Hyperlisp, this project leverages WebAssembly to embed the runtime in the web page. This runtime includes the bridge code (in JavaScript) for allowing Hyperlisp access to the Dom and other browser apis. The goal is for this bridge to act as if Hyperlisp was provided by the browser as another language available in <script> tags.
