### Integrated Scheme development environment for macOS and iOS

*LispPad* is a simple, lightweight, integrated development environment for developing and running Scheme code on macOS and iOS. The [language supported by LispPad](/applications/language.md) is based on the [R7RS standard](http://www.r7rs.org/) of the Scheme programming language. LispPad provides the following components:

* A fully integrated Scheme interpreter (based on the [LispKit engine](https://github.com/objecthub/swift-lispkit))
* A large range of [supported libraries](/applications/libraries.md)
* A text editor supporting syntax highlighting, smart indentation, parenthesis matching, text completion, page guides, etc.
* A console with a read-eval-print loop
* Support for networking, audio, graphics, compression, Markdown, SQLite, etc.

*LispPad* is free and comes in two version: [*LispPad* for macOS](/releases/lisppad.md) and [*LispPad Go* for iOS](/releases/lisppad-go.md). The two versions can synchronize their programs, libraries and assets via iCloud. You can download a [reference manual](https://zenger.org/lisppad/assets/LispPad_Reference_2.2.pdf) documenting all the core LispPad libraries.
