Glisp is a Lisp-based design tool that combines a graphical editor with a Lisp interpreter, letting artists mix direct manipulation with code-driven generative design. Project files are themselves Lisp programs that render SVG-like shape trees, making the tool hackable and purpose-agnostic.
Use cases
- create generative art with a Lisp-based design tool
- prototype graphic designs using code and GUI together
- learn Lisp through visual creative coding
- draw flowcharts and illustrations programmatically
- hack and customize a design tool via homoiconic project files
- render vector graphics from Lisp code in the browser
When to choose
- you want to blend direct-manipulation design with creative coding
- you want a self-bootstrapping, hackable design tool built on Lisp
- you're exploring generative art or computational design in the browser
When to avoid
- you need a polished, production-ready design tool like Illustrator or Figma
- you require touch-screen support or a designer-friendly non-code interface
- you need stable performance for large projects, since incremental evaluation is still planned
