Developer experience, libraries, performance… (2021/11)

I'll preface this with three things. 1. I prefer schemes over Common Lisps, and I prefer Racket of the Schemes. 2. There is more to it than the points I raise here. 3. I assume you have no previous experience with Lisp, and don't have a preference for Schemes over Common Lisp. With all that out of the way... I would say Common Lisp/SBCL. Let me explain

SBCL Is by far the most common of the CL implementations in 2021. It will be the easiest to find help for, easiest to find videos about, and many major open source CL projects are written using SBCL
Download a binary directly from the website http://www.sbcl.org/platform-table.html (even for M1 macs) to get up and running (easy to get started)
Great video for setting up Emacs + Slime + Quick Lisp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnWVu8VVDbI

Now as to why Common Lisp over Scheme

Where you able to produce a binary directly from the Rust build tools that you could submit to the app/play store?

Not quite, but I tried to get as close to that as was reasonably possible. Alas, things ended up a little convoluted.

For iOS, I have a nearly empty Xcode project with a build script that copies my cargo produced executable into the .app that Xcode generates (before Xcode signs it). The build script also uses lipo to merge the executables for each architecture I’m targeting (e.g. armv7 and aarch64 for non-simulator devices) into a single, universal binary.

On top of that, there are various iOS-y things that need to happen before my application’s main method is called. SDL2 provides the Objective-C code that does all of that. In a C or C++ game, SDL2 renames main to SDL_main, and then [inserts its own mai

Kinesis Freestyle (Terrible key switches. Mushy and un-lovable)
Kinesis Freestyle Edge (Traditional layout with too many keys, mech switches, proably too big to be tented easily/properly)
Matias Ergo Pro (Looks pretty great. Have not tried.)
ErgoDox Kit (Currently, my everyday keyboard. Can buy pre-assembled on eBay.)
ErgoDox EZ (Prolly the best option for most people.)
