What is it for?

  Originally, for fun! It gives you a chance to use Lisp's syntax and mentality if you're stuck with PHP on the backend. Moreover, you have features like macros and lexical scope, which can be useful.

    Fun is good. I just wondered if it had been built for a specific project and if so what problems it was trying to solve. It's funny - I've spent the past few years thinking about high-level languages that would compile down to lisp. Recently I've seen a number that go the other way.

    Is this is a problem you face personally?
