spinneret
A modern, composable, and pretty HTML5 generator for Common Lisp with a focus on human-readable output.
What is spinneret?
Spinneret is a Common Lisp library for generating HTML5. It treats HTML as a document format, producing idiomatic, human-readable output that follows the HTML5 specification's coding style. The library emphasizes composability, allowing developers to easily refactor HTML generation into reusable functions and macros.
Common Lisp developers building web applications or generating HTML5 documents, particularly those who prioritize readable output and want to compose HTML generation logic flexibly. It's also suitable for projects using Parenscript for client-side HTML generation.
Developers choose Spinneret for its aggressive interpretation of Lisp forms as HTML, which simplifies common use cases while maintaining flexibility for advanced needs. Its unique selling points include seamless Parenscript integration for isomorphic HTML generation, built-in Markdown support, and the `deftag` macro for creating composable, extensible HTML abstractions.
