Overview
Awesome Common Lisp is an Awesome-style curated directory of Common Lisp libraries, frameworks, tools, and resources. It focuses on high-quality, practically useful packages, mostly available via Quicklisp, and highlights widely adopted “community standard” libraries as well as promising newer options.
Features
-
Curated library list
- Focus on Common Lisp frameworks, libraries, and related tools.
- Emphasis on quality, usefulness, and practical adoption.
-
Quicklisp integration focus
- Nearly all listed libraries are available through Quicklisp unless explicitly noted otherwise.
- Helps users find packages that are easy to install and manage in real-world Lisp projects.
-
Community standard markers
- Libraries marked with ⭐ are considered community standards: widely used, stable, and trusted (e.g., Quicklisp, BordeauxThreads).
- Allows quick identification of safe defaults for new and existing projects.
-
Recommended / promoted libraries
- Libraries marked with 👍 are recommended by the maintainers.
- These may offer better solutions than standards in some areas but are less widespread or not yet as mature.
- Example guidance: preference for Spinneret over Cl-Who for certain use cases.
-
Ecosystem context and cross-links
