Hello guys,
I' m just a hobbyist here, but if you're ok, this is my 2 cents.
As it has already been written by many, Picolisp has already many
features that are IMHO killing features:
- simplicity
- the integrated web server + client library,
- the integrated NoSQL database + the integrated Prolog
All these features give you an integrated full stack. I don't know many
other programming languages which give you such a power.
However, as someone who just do programming for himself, besides this
amazing community from which I have get so many help, I have sometimes
missed some full examples of Picolisp use in order to find some ideas.
For example, I found examples about OODB of the "ProDevTips" blog very
useful.
In the past, I have been able to do some development in R, because of
the so many examples that can be easily found on any topic.
Hence I kind of agree with Alex below, for me there's nothing to add yet
to Picolisp, but to the documentation or IMHO provide some more "full"
examples which demonstrate the full power of our beloved Picolisp.
Best,
Eric

in the years to come? What do you see as the killer feature that could help
For me, the killer feature is *simplicity*. Anybody really interested should be
able to understand all levels of the language and runtime system, being in
control and immune to temporary hypes.
Picolisp to strive and survive? What do you think is missing in the
Picolisp ecosystem?
Documentation.
