I'm responding a bit late to your comment because I don't know how the HN comment ranking works and I was a bit afraid this would become the main narrative here, sorry.
The "with a Lisp" part of the title wasn't meant to indicate the source is open. I'd love to open source this when it's a more established platform, but as of right now I feel like it would be too easy for others to copy-paste the codebase and profit off of my work before I get a chance to do so myself.
I added the "with a lisp" part to the title for two reasons:
- I personally always like to see that lisp-like languages are being used in production, and I think many HN readers feel the same way. Not sure why the love for lisps is so high here, but I like it :)
- In the FAQ I mention some (current and future) advantages of using a lisp-like language. Maybe I should have gone in more detail there, as there's a couple more interesting things I'm doing in this app that I haven't seen anywhere else yet. I don't have a blog on the website yet. When I do I'll make sure to dive in some more details in a dedicated blog post about the tech stack.
