I hope so, then I will just have a reason to do it - running lisp code in production would be a rare badge.


From what I've gathered, it's run in production, just not the production environments this community usually hears about. There is pretty much no web ecosystem in Common Lisp, which is what I'm trying to fix, but in other domains it fits just fine.

Hunchentoot and Drakma rock.


Hunchentoot is just a web application server. Compare that the the ecosystem in Ruby or even Node.js.


Well, it's a little more than that. But you are right generally speaking. I also gave up on Lisp for web dev. Just not worth it.


I guess tomjen3 was thinking about a badge for himself :)
