    Another datapoint - wisp, my favorite LISP-to-JS transpiler, also apparently works fine: https://github.com/wisp-lang/wisp/issues/174

    This makes for a pretty awesome combination considering bun's system calls and sqlite support.

    Me, I’d much rather revive wisp (https://github.com/wisp-lang/wisp), but the author does have quite a few points — Google Closure is the main reason why I stopped using CLJS…

    and I'm sure I've seen a time travelling debuggable js-transpiled thing long ago

    Sorry but, Wisp already exists, twice! It's Lisp without parentheses:

    The name is already in use by another small Lisp (not particularly well-known, but I've tried it): https://github.com/Gozala/wisp/

    Yes. Not because of the developer, but because of how extremely flexible and dynamic the Lisp-family languages are. The power and joy of Lisp is in how it's almost a meta-language, so every project can become its own EDSL. The most famous (infamous?) example of this is Vacietis[2], which is a Common Lisp library that allows C code to be imported directly(!!).

    [0] IIRC the Yesod framework's Warp does well on benchmarks, and when you look at code like https://github.com/yesodweb/wai/blob/master/warp/Network/Wai... you can see the lengths they had to go through to work around the choice of implementation language.

    [1] Go has a garbage collector, but exposes the stack/heap distinction more directly than Haskell, so it's easier to write allocation-free code in hot paths.

    racket and common lisp both offer reader interfaces which allow parsing non-s-expression languages. see https://github.com/vsedach/Vacietis , a c compiler implemented in common lisp which uses the common lisp reader.

    Very funny. One might be interested in e.g. Vacietis which does manage to compile enough of C correctly to a higher level language (in this case, Common Lisp) to be interesting.

    ================

    Vacietis is a C compiler for Common Lisp systems.

    Vacietis works by loading C code into a Common Lisp runtime as though
