I have been writing Clojure full time since 2017. Most of my work is about building mobile/web apps and APIs.

Ferret Lang is a lisp that I dig. It compiles to C++11 and is crazy fast on low powered hardware. Coming from Clojure, Ferret feels nimble. But I don't think I'll ever have a use for it.

Thank you for sharing Ferret Lang. I'm excited to try this one out. A year ago I went on a quest for something lisp-like on the Arduino. I came across u-lisp but it seemed limited. I ultimately landed on Forth (not a lisp), which was a great learning experience. I think Ferret was what I was looking for at the time.
