Assembly

Lisp

Lisp is a family of programming languages with a long history and a thriving present. With its first incarnations dating back to the late 50s, Lisp is one of the oldest programming language still in use.

Today Lisp is still very much alive and kicking, with many available dialects and implementations such as Common Lisp, Clojure, Emacs Lisp, Scheme, Guile, Racket - just to name a few. Lisp, in one of its dialects, is the language of choice of numerous successful software projects.

The Lisp assembly is a meeting point for Lisp aficionados of all levels as well as for the passer-by who's curious and wants to know more. We aspire to attract friends from all Lisp dialects and from all Lisp-based projects that are otherwise not represented at 38c3, such as the Emacs programmable editor and the Guix package manager and operating system.

Our rallying call is "send more parentheses"!

Languages, projects, communities

We're in the process of reaching out to the following Lisp languages, projects, and communities. If you know of any other project that should be added here, please let us know! The list will be updated as we go.

Code of conduct

The 38c3 Lisp assembly is meant to be an open, friendly, and safe environment where people from the most diverse backgrounds can get together, learn about, teach, and discuss Lisp-related topics in a welcoming and constructive way.

To this end, the assembly adheres to the Guix project's official Code of Conduct. Please make sure you're familiar with the document and that you share its principles, if you want to be part of our assembly.

Should you want to raise an issue or discuss any CoC-related aspect, please don't hesitate to reach out to the organisers (see contacts).
