for now, configuring neovim with fennel lisp (it compiles to lua), i just like how it works, specially the s-expressions.
i like coding as a hobby but i still haven't decided on a favorite lisp dialect
Why not emacs in evil mode? Native lisp support.
I don't know where to find any up-to-date comprehensible learning resources. Specifically about whatever "melpa" or "non-gnu elpa" are, if the package management is built-in, etc.
I have also seen a bunch of front-ends and I don't think I know what Emacs is..? Like in the Void repos there's a command-line one (emacs) but also GTK (emacs-gtk and emacs-pgtk), for example, and even an X11 (emacs-x11) one even though that's not a GUI toolkit.
Sounds cool. Was wondering if still use lisp for bigger projects. Last time I was using it was when I was studying psychology. Psychologist still used it for whatever reason back then.
