lisp koans

We have hosted the application lisp koans in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about lisp koans:

Lisp Koans is a self-guided learning path for Common Lisp that teaches the language�s idioms through a series of failing tests you progressively make pass. Each koan introduces a concept�symbols, lists, macros, multiple dispatch, reader syntax�then asks you to fill in the blanks and run the suite again. The feedback loop is intentionally tight: fail, reflect, fix, and rerun until the tests become a form of living documentation. Because koans are organized from fundamentals to metaprogramming, learners internalize not just syntax but also Lisp�s philosophy of code-as-data. The exercise format makes it ideal for workshops, katas, or leveling up engineers who have never touched a Lisp before. It�s minimal on infrastructure and maximal on discovery, encouraging use of a REPL and inspector while you solve each puzzle.

Features:

• Failing tests that guide learning from basics to macros
• Incremental difficulty with immediate REPL-friendly feedback
• Coverage of core Common Lisp types, functions, and control flow
• Introductions to macros, reader forms, and multiple dispatch
• Self-contained exercises suited for workshops or katas
• Acts as living documentation as you complete each koan

Programming Language: Common Lisp.
