As JavaScript becomes increasingly ubiquitious thanks to budding frameworks like node.js, the lisp->javascript compilers start to look more interesting. Parenscript [1], Scriptjure [2] and Scheme2Js [3] are the respective projects for Common Lisp, Clojure and Scheme, and they're all relatively mature. More recently, Jacob Rothstein started Sibilant [4], which I've been collaborating on [5]. The main difference in approach is that we're trying to design a new lisp dialect optimized for the task of writing JavaScript, rather than compiling from an existing lisp dialect that wasn't designed with this purpose in mind. Since it's such a young project, I wouldn't recommend it for production environments now, but you should keep an eye on it if you're interested in this sort of thing. --- [1] http://common-lisp.net/project/parenscript/ http://common-lisp.net/project/parenscript/ [2] http://www-sop.inria.fr/indes/scheme2js/ http://www-sop.inria.fr/indes/scheme2js/ [3] https://github.com/arohner/scriptjure https://github.com/arohner/scriptjure [4] https://github.com/jbr/sibilant https://github.com/jbr/sibilant [5] https://github.com/evanrmurphy/sibilant https://github.com/evanrmurphy/sibilant
