Structured as ordered groups of broken unit tests, the project guides the learner progressively through many Common Lisp language features.

    Practical Common Lisp is also a nice read, and the Cookbook* seems to be coming along quite nicely. There's also CLiki (the Common Lisp wiki), but I'm not sure how up-to-date it is.

    an actually difficult question! Different persons will absorb different things from articles, and will enjoy different projects as a first encounter. Pointers:

    https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/ (and see the Emacs or the debugging pages to see what's possible)

    see https://www.youtube.com/@CBaggers/playlists and either his introductions to Slime, either his introductions to CEPL to play with graphics interactively,

    also for graphics, a new 3D system in development: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liaLgaTOpYE

    for an overview of how thought through is REPL driven development in CL: https://mikelevins.github.io/posts/2020-12-18-repl-driven/

    and, we are lucky (or cursed :] ), there are many more cool articles on the topic.

    But after you get past some basic weird stuff, it's a quite wonderful language.

    > I can only speak for myself, but I definitely reason about code outside in rather than inside out.

    You can indent code to make it much easier to "parse", and use some macros that turn the code inside/out, it's more readable than most other languages.

    The CL cookbook is an excellent resource, and this page links to several other excellent resources and books you can read for free online: https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/

    The "new docs" also present the documentation in a "modern" looking way (rather than the 90's looks of what you get if you Google around): https://lisp-docs.github.io/cl-language-reference/

    About other Lisps...

    The Racket Guide is definitely not "bone-dry": https://docs.racket-lang.org/guide/intro.html

    It is well written and looks very beautiful to me.

    On another Scheme, I find Guile docs also great: https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/index.ht...

    They may be a bit more "dry" but they're to the point and very readable! In fact, I think Lisp languages tend to have great documentation.

    > the problem with Lisp is that it's sorta bundled with Emacs

    What's the problems with Alive, SLT, Slyblime, and Vlime? I mean, I use Emacs, but I was using Emacs before getting into Scheme and CL anyway.

    > Every website that teaches Lisp is in ugly HTML+CSS-only style

    I dunno, I feel like the Community Spec (<https://cl-community-spec.github.io/pages/index.html>) and the Cookbook (<https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/>) are fine.

    > I like the philosophy of (s-exp) but modern lisps have ruined its simplicity for me by introducing additional bracket notations [like this].

    Yes, that additional notation is a terrible blight on the perfection that is S-expressions, I wholeheartedly agree.
