   My experience wasn't a smooth sailing either, but I want to say to readers that stuff is probably better today: "getting a database connection set up was pulling teeth." => https://lispcookbook.github.io/

   It is missing the Lem editor, that works for CL out of the box but also for more languages (Python, Rust, Go, Java, Dart, Nim, HTML… and a directory, markdown, SQL, shell… mode). https://github.com/lem-project/lem/

   yeah… there are good IUP bindings, and embedding a CL web app into Electron (or Neutralino) is easy, once you have your standalone binary (I'll blog about that). https://github.com/CodyReichert/awesome-cl#gui

   moreover, someone is building a CL editor in Rust and Tauri! https://www.reddit.com/r/lisp/comments/x41i0e/what_features_... (no code release yet, very much POC)

    So, the article is harsh on CL: YMMV. Also, your goal may vary: I want to build and ship (web) applications, and so far Julia doesn't look attractive to me (at all). Super fast incremental development, build a standalone binary and dep

    In CL land, we have good support with Atom, Jupyter notebooks, Sublime, VSCode (new plugin, hard-ish to install), and to a lower extent Geany, Eclipse (basic support) and other terminal REPLs. https://lispcookbook.github.io/

    Quicklisp ships releases once a month (think Debian releases instead of npm), so it is very possible it didn't pick the latest release yet. Your solution is to clone the repository into ~/quicklisp/local-projects/. Anoth
