A Spiritual Successor To LISP.<br>This vault, is a living-document for and in aid to the development the <a data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label="https://github.com/lith-lang" rel="noopener nofollow" class="external-link is-unresolved" href="https://github.com/lith-lang" target="_self">Lith</a> Programming-Language; And it's reference implementation <a data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label="https://github.com/metropolisp/megalith" rel="noopener nofollow" class="external-link is-unresolved" href="https://github.com/metropolisp/megalith" target="_self">Mega(lith)</a>. Lith is a new Lisp without all the compatibility considerations / consolidation kludge of Common-Lisp but is very-much culturally adjacent to it. It intends to serve as an "alternate history" where the AI Winter never happened (Even as the threat of the second looms heavy. lol) -- and what a Lisp that kept pushing could've, would've and I think should've looked like.<br>This is a project that heavily leans into idealism over pragmatism, the goal is to try to push things forwards not make things a bit better; If you want a more traditional and certainly more 'real' (ie: not currently vaporware) "better Lisp", we have a sister project called <a data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label="https://github.com/metropolisp/clark-lang" rel="noopener nofollow" class="external-link is-unresolved" href="https://github.com/metropolisp/clark-lang" target="_self">Clark</a> -- which is built on CL but which should be viewed as a Meta-Lisp implementation adjacent to Gerbil on Gambit or Racket on Chez, in the world of Scheme. Clark has a nicer syntax (imo), some opinionated defaults, bigger stdlib, etc. We don't really care about being a good-citizen in the CL space for / in Clark but our own thing; Though another interesting option and one certainly more true to actual CL as-is, is <a data-tooltip-position="top" aria-label="https://github.com/ciel-lang/ciel" rel="noopener nofollow" class="external-link is-unresolved" href="https://github.com/ciel-lang/ciel" target="_self">CIEL</a> and if you're just interested in a better CL But yeah, Lith's wishlist is broadly:
(and obviously this is vaporware atm,
but some unique desires for it are a,) Deterministic memory-model
(easily mapable to different machines with minimum memory threshold met and architectures) Built-in source management. Permissions system / scoping for multi-user dev. In-instance snapshot and rollbacks of the image. Full graphical system, including novel visual-programming presentation Distributed computing friendly. Share resources selectively for given tasks. Any Sufficiently Advanced LISP Is Indistinguishable From Magic
