  4. You might be interested in Hissp, a Lisp with access to the breadth of libraries available to Python. https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  5. …certainly take Python's huge ecosystem over Lisp's metaprogramming. You can have both with Hissp. https://github.com/gilch/hissp

  6. …has multiple readers with different characteristics, not all of which are based on S-expressions. https://github.com/gilch/hissp/discussions/182
    comment by gilch · 2023-07-04 · in Steel Bank Common Lisp
  7. I prefer https://github.com/gilch/hissp , where Hy has to use shims to pretend statements are expressions, Hissp just targets the expression subset in the first place. (though as you mentioned, hy has a lot of literature and support around…
  8. …as a compilation target. Its REPL shows the Python compilation. Play around with it til you get it: https://github.com/gilch/hissp

  9. How close is Hissp? https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  10. No shortage of options, e.g. Dg, Mochi, Coconut, and Hebigo (based on Hissp[1]). [1]: https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  11. Also check out Hissp: https://github.com/gilch/hissp

  12. In that case, would the Hissp README https://github.com/gilch/hissp#readme be an appropriate introductory article in your view? It opens with some small examples and concludes with some design philosophy.

  13. …code strings with `.#`. In [Hebigo][4], you just put parentheses around the whole thing. [1]: https://github.com/gilch/hissp [2]: https://hissp.readthedocs.io/en/v0.3.0/tutorial.html#hello-w... [3]: https://hissp.readthedocs.io/en/v0.3.0/tu…

  14. I wonder if Hissp would be more to your taste? https://github.com/gilch/hissp
    comment by gilch · 2022-05-03 · in Why Hy?
  15. You might like [Hissp's][1] import system. It does compile down to Python. [1]: https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  16. …your JS experience, you should be able to pick up ClojureScript without too much trouble. [1]: https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  17. …other hand, [Hissp][1] has a pretty good tutorial for anyone coming from a Python background. [1]: https://github.com/gilch/hissp

  18. See also, Hissp: https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  19. …compiles directly to Python AST, not to Python. For a Lisp that compiles to Python, see Hissp: https://github.com/gilch/hissp

  20. Hissp is a Lisp clone in Python, with a tiny escape hatch to fully utilize the Python parts. https://github.com/gilch/hissp

  21. If you're already familiar with Python libraries, check out Hissp ( https://github.com/gilch/hissp ), which compiles to Python expressions.

  22. Hissp: https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  23. Here's a Lisp in Python: https://github.com/gilch/hissp
  24. What about a Lissp-Hebigo pair? https://github.com/gilch/hissp#hebigo Hissp takes a different approach than Hy. Where Hy has to use shims to pretend statements are expressions, Hissp just targets the expression subset in the first place.…
  25. Not sure how close Hebigo gets to that idea: https://github.com/gilch/hissp#hebigo
  26. See Hebigo's Python-like approach: https://github.com/gilch/hissp#hebigo
  27. …uses multiline lambdas to simplify its compilation target to a functional subset of Python: https://github.com/gilch/hissp Hebigo is a skin built on Hissp with a more Python-like syntax and macros based on Drython. It's what Python would…
  28. See [Hissp] and [Hebigo] for another attempt to drag the Python and Lisp people together. [Hissp]: https://github.com/gilch/hissp [Hebigo]: https://github.com/gilch/hebigo
