GitHub - vindarel/common-lisp-course-in-videos: Learn Lisp efficiently and become a happy programmer.

Everyone, let me celebrate a little bit: I am creating a Common Lisp video course on the Udemy platform. I’m several dozen hours in already and it’s taking a good shape! It is so much more time consuming to create videos than to write a tutorial O_o But I like what’s in there already, although there isn’t everything I want to teach, of course. I’m working on more content. Everything will come in time, and meanwhile you can buy the course: you’ll get future content for “free” ;) Yes the course is to sell, hopefully it will help me concentrate more on my CL activities (BTW, dear reader, here’s a 50% off coupon for April, 2022, and if you are a student drop me a line).

It is with great pleasure and satisfaction that I published new videos about Common Lisp data structures on my course.The content is divided into 9 videos, for a total of 90 minutes, plus exercises, and comprehensive lisp snippets for each video so you can practice right away.The total learning material on my course now accounts for 8.40 hours, in 10 chapters and 61 videos, plus extras. You get to learn all the essentials to be an efficient (Common Lisp) developer: CLOS made easy, macros, error and condition handling, iteration, all about functions, working with projects, etc.

For those who don’t know and who didn’t see the banner :D I am creating a Common Lisp course on the Udemy platform (with complementary videos on Youtube). I wanted to do something different and complementary than writing on the Cookbook.I worked on new videos this summer and I just finished editing the subtitles. I have added 17 videos (worth 1h30+ of code-driven content) about Common Lisp macros!

And 2022 is over. The Common Lisp language and environment are solid and stable, yet evolve. Implementations, go-to libraries, best practices, communities evolve. We don’t need a “State of the Ecosystem” every two weeks but still, what happened and what did you miss in 2022?This is my pick of the most exciting, fascinating, interesting or just cool projects, tools, libraries and articles that popped-up during that time (with a few exceptions that appeared in late 2021).

This is a follow-up from yesterday’s post on reddit and an announce I wanted to make since this summer: I created 9 videos on CLOS, for a total of 1 hour and 22 minutes, in which you learn what I detail below. You can watch the course and subscribe here (Christmas coupon) and learn more on GitHub. The whole course is made of 51 videos divided in 9 chapters, for a total of 7 hours and 12 minutes.
