Borg v3.2 and Epkg v3.3 released
borg is a bare-bones package manager that installs packages using Git submodules. It is most useful to package authors and users who also contribute to the packages that they use.

Just showing off how nice lisp can look in prism-mode. Check reply for the config :)
Heh, seriously, though, it's not necessary to use a rainbow of colors. You can use any number of colors and rotate through them. For example, this uses just 3 colors, gradually desaturating them as the depth increases. Since each color is easily distinguished from the other 2, it makes code very readable: https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el/raw/master/images/parens-0.5.png

How do I build a syntax highlighter based on S-Expressions?
If you can use tree-sitter, that's obviously a good choice. Alternatively, you can see how I implemented https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el, which isn't regexp-based, using Emacs's built-in syntax parsing instead.

Trying to find a package that colorizes file contents by indentation level.
I did some experimenting with supporting XML directly in https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el/issues/16. It seems that it's not easily done with existing Emacs SGML-related functions, but I'm guessing that tree-sitter will help a lot in Emacs 29.

How to combine highlight-parenthesis with rainbow-delimiters?
It's not exactly what you asked for, but you may also find this useful: https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el It can highlight parens distinctly too.

Change text appearance in buffer
As examples, I can recommend code in https://github.com/alphapapa/highlight-function-calls (simple) and https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el (more complex).

How to properly font-lock for a custom major-mode aka how to use complex regex?
The best advice I can offer is to carefully and repeatedly study the Elisp manual section on font-lock, and to model on the source code of a similar project. The most I've done with it is in https://github.com/alphapapa/prism.el
