Project Roadmap

This is a note for me. For anyone who's exploring this codebase.

Since the idea is to build a LISP that is inspired by the likes of Clojure, CommonLisp & Schemeto list a few.

As of now, we've got something's that can evaluate a handful of expressions, and you can write some small programs with it too.

There are many many more items that I/we should check off before we can call it a complete programming language.

Here's the BIG check-list of items we need to check off

Add Code Transformation & Code Gen compiler steps (although this is mostly a (parser+eval) interpreter as of now)
Better & standard regular expressions to generate the tokens
Support Local & Global bindings. (using the keyword let)
More core-lib functions
Support both named & anonymous functions.
Add macro support
Add functions for user-IO
Better error handling
Concurrency support
Compiling down to machine code, that can be run! (Super exciting)

This is a long road and I hope to learn as much as I can by doing this project. I'm certainly excited about this!

Thanks for stopping by. Ciao!
