Implementing a Lisp in JavaScript that compiles to C is a nice idea
From 1 comment
+1 for implementing a Lisp in JavaScript that compiles to C. Just a heads up, the main script in your package.json points to a file that doesn't exist.

Objections
Built-in names are abbreviated and obfuscated, which is less clear than full names
From 1 comment
Why the obfuscated names? I mean > There is reduce (REDC), array (ARRY), filter (FLTR) and each (EACH). It would be much cleaner to just use full names (array instead of ARRY)
