These days Conjure is the best way to write a lisp language in Neovim, in my opinion. It supports Clojure, Common Lisp, Fennel, etc. Not my project but I’m very thankful for those who contribute!

I've been using Fennel to write my Neovim configurations and it's been really nice. The setup is a bit annoying but once there it's pretty nice.
Some details about my setup (although I've moved back to lazy.nvim instead of vim.pack): https://www.jonashietala.se/blog/2025/10/29/packing_neovim_w...

Curious why you went back to lazy.nvim? I had to write some stuff to get some kind of lazy loading (now have "immediate", "vim.schedule", and "VimEnter + vim.schedule" lazy modes), plugin specs / setup functions are colocated, and using vim.packs unused `data` for config merging and it works well enough.
Also, your treesitter auto install makes a common mistake: vim file type and treesitter grammar names don't match up. IE a .tsx file has a vim filetype of `typescriptreact` while the treesitter parser is named "tsx". You'll need something like this https://github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim/blob/cfdc17be3ae1..., and there's still the note that the `vim.treesitter.language.get_lang` call isn't really doing anything, since that function returns whatever is passed in if no parser matching the name has been registered. So that check is moot.

Cool, thank you.
I had some bugs with moving between a laptop and desktop and pack's lockfile kept getting out of sync, and pack didn't handle it well and sometimes even crashed. My build script also sometimes didn't work properly. I just got tired of dealing with it so I went back to lazy.nvim as it just works and does what I need.
