everything in this video is open source common lisp. yes, that is a validating https browser. technically the lisp vm is running on linux, but bare metal is really close

modus is common lisp. -- Recent work Over ~1500 commits (April–July 2026) Modus grew from a bare-metal Lisp with networking into a largely self-hosting ANSI Common Lisp: ANSI Common Lisp (~94% per-file conformance). Full condition system (handler-case/bind, restarts, signal/warn/cerror), CLOS with standard method combination and call-next-method, the reader and printer with format (50+ directives), pathnames and file I/O, a numeric tower (bignums, ratios, single/double floats, complex), and ~400 standard functions. One evaluator (WS3). Production eval and load compile each form to MVM bytecode and run it — the self-hosted MVM compiler runs inside the image, and the original tree-walking interpreter has been deleted. The vendored ASDF driver evaluates end-to-end on this path. Runtime JIT (WS4). MVM bytecode is translated to native code at runtime (executable memory + call relocation) behind the same evaluator seam. Full self-reproduction (WS5). A Modus binary compiles its own source to a native ELF and reproduces itself (modus → modus2 → modus3) with SBCL out of the loop. GC hardening. Conservative-root validation via an object-start bitmap, a heap guard band, zero-initialized allocation, and optional Bartlett page-pinning — closing a class of heap-corruption crashes. SBCL drop-in compatibility (in progress). Unmodified pure-Common-Lisp libraries load and run from source — e.g. natrium (SHA-256 FIPS-exact) and alexandria — with the bordeaux-threads dependency tree loading unmodified. New platforms and features. Bare-metal ThinkPad T420 (E1000 SSH, EHCI USB, VGA + PS/2 console), UEFI x86-64, ARM32, byte-packed (unsigned-byte 8) arrays, and a hosted modus CLI with SBCL-faithful flags.
