@purpletoxicrain I've never heard of that. What is it?
-
@Numinex
Lisp based language based on JVM or JavaScript -
@purpletoxicrain JVM or JavaScript? What do you mean?
-
@Numinex
Clojure is based on Java's JVM
ClojureScript is a client web that compiled to JavaScript
Ref: https://clojure.org/ -
@purpletoxicrain Thanks, that cleared it up. For a moment there, I thought someone didn't know the difference between Java and JavaScript.
-
@Numinex Lisps are an incredibly powerful set of languages.
There is a one-to-one relationship between the code and the abstract syntax tree. This allows macros have the same language features as the language itself.
That is why they are known as programmable programming language -
@Hedgepig Cool, now you've intrigued me. I've gotta do some more research on this.
-
@Numinex my recommendation is Racket for learning, Clojure for serious projects.

@Hedgepig Thanks man!
