Clojure, Lisp (programming language) |
Pixie is a lightweight Lisp suitable for both general use as well as shell scripting. The standard library is heavily inspired by Clojure as well as several other functional programming languages. It is written in RPython and relies on PyPy's GC and tracing JIT.
Pixie was inspired by Clojure but it is not a port, it has significant differences.
