It's 2023, so of course I'm learning Common Lisp

It looks awesome, but I'm too lazy as of today to go back to Emacs. I usually just use VSCode close to the defaults for my (mostly) Python and JavaScript development. I don't code full time, since I'm on a CTO role.

I don't know if you're interested in Sublime Text or not but https://github.com/s-clerc/slyblime is pretty good. VS Code also has Alive which I heard is good although I don't use Electron apps.

Thanks a lot! It does indeed look good.

Btw, what made you choose Common Lisp instead of Scheme (Guile, Racket, etc) or Clojure? What made it more business effective? Genuine curiosity :)

I dislike the JVM and the other lisps did not have the code performance and stability I needed.

You may be interested in https://github.com/nobody-famous/alive which brings the power of slime to vscode (Mostly, it's relatively new and missing some features, but getting better all the time)
