Edit ``JavaScript''
_(JavaScript) is a popular client-side *(web) scripting language. It has higher-order functions and is by many accounts a jolly nice scripting language. <h2>Implementation</h2> <ul> <li>_(CL-JavaScript) is a Common Lisp JavaScript compiler <li>_(CL-SpiderMonkey) provides bindings to the Mozilla SpiderMonkey JS implementation </ul> <h2>Generating JavaScript Code</h2> <ul> <li>_(Parenscript) is Javascript with Lisp syntax and macros.<br></li> <li>_(jsgen) is a similar package with a more direct mapping to JavaScript.</li> <li>_(parse-js) is a simple ECMAScript 3 parser</li> </ul> <h2>Talking to JavaScript</h2> _(JavaScript) is also needed to implement the client-side part of AJAX (Asynchronous _(JavaScript) And _(XML))-- a Common-Lisp implementation of which can be found as _(CL-AJAX) for _(araneida) and _(HT-AJAX) for _(Hunchentoot). If _(XML) seems too heavy-weight one can use _(cl-json) or _(st-json) to directly send JSON (Java Script Object Notation).
