Aniseed bridges the gap between Fennel (a Lisp that compiles to Lua) and Neovim. Allowing you to easily write plugins or configuration in a Clojure-like Lisp with great runtime performance.
Further documentation can be found in :help aniseed. There you can learn about the scripts, macros, functions and use cases of Aniseed.
Use your favourite plugin manager, I recommend vim-plug if you don’t have one already.
Plug 'Olical/aniseed', { 'tag': 'v3.7.0' }
Plug 'bakpakin/fennel.vim'For interactive evaluation you need to install Conjure. It’ll allow you to send portions of your code off for evaluation as well as see the results in an interactive log buffer.
You may also be interested in nvim-local-fennel which is essentially a Fennel based version of localvimrc.
scripts/seed.sh is provided to make it a little easier to get a plugin up and running. In anew directory (because it will overwrite your .gitignore and Makefile etc) run the following command.
curl -fL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Olical/aniseed/master/scripts/seed.sh | shThis will create some example Fennel source and tests as well as a Makefile to help you compile and run it all. This should be enough to get you started without being overly opinionated.
The following files are excluded from my license and ownership:

lua/aniseed/deps/nvim.lua
These files come from Fennel and nvim.lua, I did not write them, all other files are from me and unlicenced. The aforementioned files should be considered under their respective project licences. They are copied into this repo to allow the plugin to work with systems that don’t support symlinks correctly.
