Orion 1.0.0 release on a VM !
Code and documentation are here: https://github.com/orion-lang/orion
- I switched my language from a tree walk interpreter to a VM, and speed was multiplied by 19.

Vim Lisp, a LISP like language created to make Vim configuration more pleasant to do.
When my language VM will be finished, I plan to make this project a library of it. It is not a real LISP, I picked the syntax in Scheme and concepts from OCaml, but I think it could be good for that use case.

Orion, a purely functionnal Lisp written in Rust.
Might be because it uses a tree-walking interpreter.
If I am reading the source right, it copies everything, which is not really beneficial for performance.

Why Fennel?
You don't need to transpile it if you use https://github.com/Olical/aniseed

TimL: Clojure-like Lisp dialect that runs on and compiles down to Vimscript
Something similar: Fennel (https://fennel-lang.org/) is a lisp that compiles into Lua, which nvim can use as plugins, so you can write nvim plugins in a lisp. Aniseed (https://github.com/Olical/aniseed) makes this really easy.

The extensible vi layer for Emacs
Just use vim. Yes, emacs has a lisp engine, but so does nvim[1]. Really, though, using vim properly means that it doesn't need to swallow the kitchen sink[2]. Just use vim.

lazy.nvim and Aniseed for config environment
I use Aniseed to write my configs in Fennel, and I can't seem to find a way to get Aniseed bootstrapped and managed by lazy. Folke has said that fennel isn't supported in issues about hotpot and tangerine, but neither of them particularly help me solve my issue

Introducing LazyVim!

A config using fennel .
Have you tried aniseed ?

Swapping to Fennel
Aniseed: mostly an environment, it does handle configuration. It adds a lot of clojure features (another modern Lisp) such as a module system. It does seem to be slower to startup though, but I really like how its module system works and still use it for that reason alone. There's not much boilerplate code, just add it to the header

[help] How to write nvim plugins with Fennel?
The easiest would be to use aniseed: https://github.com/Olical/aniseed, it has a bootstrap script that downloads all the needed dependencies: https://github.com/Olical/aniseed, it also adds some syntax niceties and testing support. Here's an example of a plugin: https://github.com/katawful/kat.nvim
What are some alternatives?
When comparing orion and aniseed you can also consider the following projects:
gluon - A static, type inferred and embeddable language written in Rust.
hotpot.nvim - :stew: Carl Weathers #1 Neovim Plugin.
