## Useful for

- Run a REPL and evaluate simple Lisp expressions
- Build a standalone Lisp application by saving an environment
- Call a C library from Lisp code via FFI

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-06 (UTC), 10:16–12:35: 36 → 36 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +4 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 6 days old and already has 36 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Hacker News: “Evergreen Common Lisp (EGCL)” — 33 points, 22 h ago.
- Recent forks include notable developers: @svetlyak40wt (621 followers).

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 1
- Issues and pull requests: 47
- Watchers: 1
- Average over the last week: 5 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 0
- Latest release: v0.0.2 (2026-10-06)

## Stars per day, last 10 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

2026-09-27 … 2026-10-06: 0, 0, 0, 1, 4, 1, 0, 9, 19, 0

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
