SICL is a fresh, modular implementation of the Common Lisp programming language. It is split into many implementation-independent, highly portable modules that other Common Lisp implementations can reuse instead of maintaining their own versions.
Use cases
- implement a Common Lisp runtime from scratch
- reuse portable Common Lisp modules in another Lisp implementation
- study how a Common Lisp implementation is structured
- research programming language implementation techniques
- bootstrap a new Lisp compiler and runtime
When to choose
- you need a modular, research-oriented Common Lisp implementation
- you want to borrow well-separated components like a reader or loop macro for your own implementation
- you are studying language implementation design
When to avoid
- you need a production-grade, high-performance Common Lisp for daily work
- you want a mature implementation with long-term vendor support
- you need a simple out-of-the-box Lisp toolchain with minimal setup
