Lisp and Python should love each other. Let's make it happen.

Hy is a Lisp dialect that's embedded in Python. Since Hy transforms its Lisp

code into Python abstract syntax tree (AST) objects, you have the whole

beautiful world of Python at your fingertips, in Lisp form.

To install the latest release of Hy, just use the command `pip3 install

--user hy`. Then you can start an interactive read-eval-print loop (REPL) with

the command `hy`, or run a Hy program with `hy myprogram.hy`.

Hy is tested on all released and currently maintained versions of CPython (on

Linux, Windows, and Mac OS), and on recent versions of PyPy and Pyodide.
