| Performance | High performance, runs on a small, efficient VM, suitable for scripting and embedding. | Performance similar to JavaScript, as it compiles directly to JavaScript. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem, fewer libraries, but can interface with C libraries. | Large ecosystem via JavaScript libraries and frameworks (Node.js, React, etc.). |
| Community and support | Small but active community, limited resources and support. | Larger community historically, but declining as ES6+ adoption grows. |
| Learning curve | Steeper for those unfamiliar with Lisp syntax and concepts. | Gentle for those familiar with JavaScript or Python; easier to pick up. |
