ChrysaLisp is a 64-bit parallel operating system environment featuring a virtual processor, GUI, terminal, OO assembler, C-Script compiler, and Lisp interpreter. It is self-hosting and portable across x64, ARM64, and RISC-V64 platforms.
Use cases
- run a parallel operating system on linux or mac
- learn lisp in a self-contained os environment
- experiment with a virtual processor and oo assembler
- build a distributed parallel computing environment
- run a lightweight gui os on a raspberry pi
- explore os internals with an integrated debugger and profiler
When to choose
- you want a self-hosting OS with its own toolchain and Lisp environment
- you need a portable virtual processor target across x64, ARM64, and RISC-V64
- you want to study parallel and distributed OS design
- you want to run a GUI environment on a Raspberry Pi in framebuffer mode
When to avoid
- you need a production OS for daily workloads
- you require bare-metal boot support today
- you need a large ecosystem of third-party applications
- you want POSIX compatibility with existing Unix software
