This free online converter lets you convert code from Janet to Lisp in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
| Characteristic | Janet | Lisp |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Concise, C-like with array-based data structures, less reliance on parentheses. | Homoiconic, heavy use of parentheses, prefix notation, code-as-data. |
| Paradigm | Multi-paradigm: functional, imperative, and metaprogramming. | Primarily functional, supports procedural and metaprogramming. |
| Typing | Dynamically typed. | Dynamically typed (most dialects), some statically typed variants. |
| Performance | High performance for a scripting language, suitable for embedding. | Performance varies by implementation; some (like SBCL) are highly optimized. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Smaller ecosystem, fewer libraries, but growing. | Large ecosystem, especially in Common Lisp and Clojure, with many mature libraries. |
| Community and support | Small but active and friendly community. | Long-standing, larger community with extensive resources and historical support. |
| Learning curve | Gentler learning curve due to simpler syntax. | Steeper learning curve, especially due to syntax and unique concepts. |
