Lisp (particularly Scheme) aware editor

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/lisp

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • vscodium

    binary releases of VS Code without MS branding/telemetry/licensing

  • You may also want to check VS Codium, built with only the free parts of VS Code.

  • lite-xl

    A lightweight text editor written in Lua

  • If lite-xl is an acceptable option language support seems simple to add. In program files there is a data directory with files like https://github.com/lite-xl/lite-xl/blob/master/data/plugins/language_python.lua would not take long to write another of those for your favorite language.

  • InfluxDB

    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.

  • able

    Lisp editor in Tk - https://common-lisp.net/project/able/ (by lisp-mirror)

  • If you want something that works out of the box and you like alternatives of alternatives and dead projects: https://github.com/lisp-mirror/able (still for CL)

  • doom

    Doom Emacs config (by elken)

  • Otherwise, please try out Doom Emacs :) https://github.com/hlissner/doom-emacs/

  • shx-for-emacs

    An Emacs shell-mode (and comint-mode) extension that enables displaying small plots and graphics and lets users write shell commands in Emacs Lisp.

  • Also note that Emacs is a fully GUI application, like I said, it depends on libgdk and libcairo2, and Emacs has support for inline graphics. Take a look at the shx-for-emacs extension to see an example of it (screenshot). Please take a look at Nicolas P. Rougier's GitHub page, he has some of the most beautiful Emacs GUI configurations (for example, this screenshot).

  • racket

    The Racket repository

  • duck-editor

    基于scheme开发的鸭子编辑器

  • If you have a good knowledge of Lisp then you don't really need support and you can make your own adjustments, right? For example, this editor is easy to adjust in Scheme: https://github.com/evilbinary/duck-editor

  • 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.
