Read Original

This technical article details the author's experience creating a practical web application using Armed Bear Common Lisp (ABCL) on the Java Virtual Machine. It covers the rationale for choosing ABCL to access the JVM ecosystem, the selection of the Jooby web framework and Netty server over alternatives like Spark or Micronaut, and the integration of the Pebble templating engine. The post includes code snippets for routing, dependency management via Maven, and using ABCL's ASDF system to resolve JAR dependencies.
