This seems to focus more on project lifecycles and scaffolding than Roswell (my current go-to toplevel for Common Lisp).
I'm not sure about using yml to track dependencies, those should be in the asdf file, although I guess this is to enable pinning etc.
- 616c 11y agoI too was looking at Roswell only to discover the core is in C. There is a very amusing issue where one contributor/user asks why not in Go, but then one of the core devs is like "Is there not another language we might be interested in? You know, the one we're developing for?" https://github.com/roswell/roswell/issues/104 https://github.com/roswell/roswell/issues/104 I am not sure why C in the first place. It looks like a fun tool, but seems like minor heresy. Jokes aside, the ease of shoving things down a la Lisp images, albeit unpopular, made me think building a Lisp mgmt tool in Lisp is easier for idiots like me who took ages to understand the ./configure, make, make install workflow of *nix platforms.
