Fennel is a programming language that brings together the speed, simplicity, and reach of Lua with the flexibility of a lisp syntax and macro system. - Full Lua compatibility: Easily call any Lua function or library from Fennel and vice-versa. - Zero overhead: Compiled code should be just as or more efficient than hand-written Lua. - Compile-time macros: Ship compiled code with no runtime dependency on Fennel. - Embeddable: Fennel is a one-file library as well as an executable. Embed it in other programs to support runtime extensibility and interactive development. Anywhere you can run Lua code, you can run Fennel code.
