cling VS xeus

> The repl driven workflow is amazing and the lisp images are rock solid and highly performant.

do people not realize that basically everything vm/interpreted language has a repl these days?

not to mention ruby, python, php, lua

hell even c++ has a janky repl https://github.com/root-project/cling

Interactive C++ with Cling, https://blog.llvm.org/posts/2020-11-30-interactive-cpp-with-cling/, https://github.com/root-project/cling/, Relaxing the One Definition Rule in Interpreted C++, https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3377555.3377901 (PDF: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/339463915_Relaxing_the_one_definition_rule_in_interpreted_C)

Want to see your mind blown? Check out cling, a (sort of) C and C++ interpreter (it's a REPL). Or the work in progress, live-developed clauf, a real C interpreter.

Wanting to just test pure c or c++ functions that are hardware independent -> (solution that I'm using): cling just in time compiler, gives a shell that you can just experiment with C++ expressions

C++ source cannot contain a shebang, but you can make them executable with binfmt-misc, and have the kernel pass them to a C++ interpreter such as Cling upon execution. Pretty much the same as running Python or Bash scripts.
