  • awesome-lisp-languages

    A list of Lisp-flavored programming languages

  • Nowadays the word "Lisp" is often used to refer to a broader family of languages, instead of to a particular specification (such as Lisp 1.5 or ANSI Common Lisp) or to a particular implementation (such as Chez Scheme or SBCL). Those languages include Common Lisp, Emacs Lisp, Scheme, Racket, Clojure, and hundreds of others.

  • Nim

    Nim is a statically typed compiled systems programming language. It combines successful concepts from mature languages like Python, Ada and Modula. Its design focuses on efficiency, expressiveness, and elegance (in that order of priority).

  • To answer your question: there is no main Lisp compiler/interpreter, like there is with languages like Nim for example. There are many Lisp compilers: a lot of them for Common Lisp, many others for Scheme, some for their own Lisp-like languages etc.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
