LMR runtime
The Live Metacircular Runtime flavor of Egg is an implementation of a runtime that is completely self hosted. There is no other “VM”, the generated image contains everything needed to execute its code.
The SExpressions (Source Expressions) are AOT nativized, so that all needed code can be executed and, when required, a JIT compiler can be loaded into that image so that new code can be nativized on-the-fly.
Memory and garbage collector are written in the same language as the rest of the system and incorporated into the bootstrapped image when building the system from the spec.
