As a functional fan, CLOS is amazing.

When I learned CLOS it was the first time OOP started making sense for me.
I've never used CLOS but I loved the metaobject protocol book. So many learnings outside of OOP – it’s a masterclass in API design.
What’s the metaobject protocol book?
No idea how i missed that; thank you.
My main takeaway was multi-methods, they didn't really click for me before I started seriously digging into CLOS. I wish more languages supported them/played around with similar ideas.
