Re:Lispsyntax.jl: A Clojure-like Lisp syntax for julia by degraafc on Tuesday January 19, 2021 @01:45PM (#25836990)
Great example of building something fun not because we should but because we can :)

My take on "Lisp in Julia" using deprecated-but-still-parseable syntax instead of a string macro: https://github.com/christopher-dG/jlisp

I should probably put some examples in the readme.

That hidden Julia s-expression syntax helped me start to understand metaprogramming in Julia. Along the way I found that it takes surprisingly few lines of code to turn the normal Julia repl into a more-or-less working Julia-lisp repl: https://gist.github.com/brenhinkeller/44051118c2f9d18b26dc76...
