About:
Nu is an object-oriented, Lisp-like programming language that runs on the Objective-C runtime. It provides a powerful and flexible syntax for building applications on Apple platforms, leveraging the rich ecosystem of Objective-C libraries while offering the expressiveness of Lisp.
Key Features:
  • Lisp-like syntax with s-expressions
  • Full interoperability with Objective-C
  • Runs on the Objective-C runtime
  • Dynamic and reflective capabilities
Use Cases:
  • Scripting on macOS and iOS
  • Building applications for Apple platforms
  • Rapid prototyping with Objective-C libraries
Alternatives:
  • Clojure – JVM-based Lisp dialect, not native to Objective-C runtime
  • Ruby – Dynamic scripting language, different syntax paradigm
