Wait, you created April, one of the most amazing hosted languages on Lisp just to learn Lisp? Wow! And here I am toiling over a simple CRUD library management app trying to figure out CLOS and it's not even going well.

April is a revelation and I'm putting it in my framework. APL reminds me of Leibniz's alphabet of concepts for his calculus ratiocinator. So gorgeous and efficient. I'm getting the keyboard.

Thanks, the utility of April was a big motivator as well, I used it in my Bloxl project (https://vimeo.com/935602359). Still, one of the reasons I focused on it as much as I did was because I knew that if I couldn't execute such a project well, I would have no chance to realize Seed. Implementing APL is a big undertaking but nonetheless one that has a clearly defined and testable goal. Seed is something with no reference to base a design off of, an objective toward which many paths appear to lead but only a few have the potential to fulfill in the best way. The challenge of such a project is on a completely different level from an APL compiler.
