A comment on Clojerl – Clojure for the Erlang VM.

Interesting. I'd really like to see Pytherl. Use the easy-to-learn Python syntax, as best as possible, but on the BEAM. I think that would be even better than Elixir for getting people on board.

I mean, at that point the only difference with Elixir is that you want whitespace delimited blocks over using DO/END.

Otherwise, none of the Python semantics make any sense on the BEAM, so I'm not sure that's that helpful, but who knows.

I doubt this is quite what you are looking for, but https://github.com/fazibear/export provides simple Elixir/Python interop.

Sadly it seems like all work on it has been stopped and they recommend using Elixir instead.
