For fun, I want to build a language. After see you can do a lisp very easy, I stop and wonder for what my "new" language can be useful. This make me think in how do a REPL, a debugger, what kind of task this must solve naturally, etc, and for which kind of users!

However, pull of a successfully language is very hard. That depress me.

You'll never regret it, and although every language is ultimately worth criticizing, it's worth having a project of your own to refine or learn from.
