  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS

  • coalton

    Coalton is an efficient, statically typed functional programming language that supercharges Common Lisp.

  • https://github.com/coalton-lang/coalton

    That said, Common Lisp while dynamically typed, is also strongly typed. Many type errors are prevented at runtime. Also you can declare types and have some limited form of static type checking in SBCL.

  • py4cl2

    Call python from Common Lisp

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
