I've always been super interested in Hy but couldn't ever get it working. Any suggestions for forums or good installation instructions or tutorials? I live Cloj

  Does this not work? `pip3 install --user hy` as mentioned in the first page of the docs: https://docs.hylang.org/en/stable/ https://docs.hylang.org/en/stable/

  Hissp might be easier to get started with. It's much less complex as a whole and has pretty thorough introductory docs.

  Just `pip install hy` and then `python -mhy` to run it. Once you see how Python translates into Hy, it's pretty straightforward. (import os) (import [os.path :as op]) (with [f (open (op.join dir_name file_name) "w")] (.write f "...")) Some things you just have to learn, like using `(setv var value)` to do assignment, or the fact that `(for)` is an imperative loop while `(lfor)` is a list comprehension, but a little experimentation goes a long way and the docs are quite good.
