LispBM (LBM) is a Lisp or Scheme-like programming language for microcontrollers. LispBM also borrows a couple of ideas from Erlang when it comes to concurrency, message passing, pattern matching and process monitoring. The LispBM runtime system can be compiled for either 32 or 64-bit platforms and runs on a wide range of hardware such as, for example, STM32, NRF52, ESP32 or X86. When running the LispBM runtime system on a microcontroller, it can be built on top of ChibiOS, FreeRTOS or ZephyrOS or, if you are adventurous, on bare-metal. LispBM can also be built to run on top of regular Linux (and now even Windows).
Who wouldn’t want a REPL (read eval print loop) on their embedded platform? This is what LispBM is for!
