Discussion of the new generation of Clojure-inspired Lisps.

• Carp

  84 5,393 0.7 Haskell

  A statically typed lisp, without a GC, for real-time applications.

  

Carp - Very similar niche to Rust. High performance, borrow-checked and Hindley-Milner type-inferred, aimed at low-latency applications such as games and GUIs. For my money, probably a great candidate for a general-purpose Lisp where performance *is* a top-tier priority.

• janet

  79 3,296 9.4 C

  A dynamic language and bytecode vm

  

Janet - Very similar niche to Python or Lua. Very small, dynamic, bytecode-interpreted, C interoperability, perfect for scripting. For my money, probably a great candidate for a general-purpose Lisp where performance *isn't* a top-tier priority.

• InfluxDB

  www.influxdata.com sponsored

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• Fennel

  90 2,281 9.1 Fennel

  Lua Lisp Language

Fennel - Compiles to Lua, 100% interoperable with Lua. An alternative syntax with all its Lispy features for Lua.

• ClojureDart

  27 1,334 9.2 Clojure

  Clojure dialect for Flutter and Dart

  

Maybe not precisely relevant - since it's not Clojure-inspired language but a port of Clojure, still, you can probably add ClojureDart to that list. Tensegritics/ClojureDart.
