A dialect of Lisp that's embedded in Python

Hy

Lisp and Python should love each other. Let's make it happen.

Hy is a Lisp dialect that's embedded in Python. Since Hy transforms its Lisp code into Python abstract syntax tree (AST) objects, you have the whole beautiful world of Python at your fingertips, in Lisp form.

To install the latest alpha of Hy, just use the command pip3 install --pre --user hy. Then you can start an interactive read-eval-print loop (REPL) with the command hy, or run a Hy program with hy myprogram.hy.
