OK, let me see what I can do. Anything in particular you'd like to see in the next chapter?

Well for me, I'm super curious about compiler development, and I think, in the topic of this thread, maybe a chapter on writing a recursive descent parser for JS? building a transpiler? or using lisp as a intermediary with LLVM IR? somewhere where either DSL || "Code is data" and the true advantages of lisp shine through, and I would love that from an experienced lisper. Also if you could go into some use cases for tunable compilers that is seldom elaborated when that is mentioned as a huge lisp advantage! Thanks for giving the community your time in advance!
