lisk is a (soon to be) interpreter for R6RS Scheme, written by the students of RV. It is written in Haskell and compiled against GHC v8.6.5. lisk is an educational adventure, it does not intend to be highly performant or fully compliant with R6RS.

Building and Running lisk

On systems using the nix package manager:

cabal2nix . > default.nix
