We are a group of Lisp hackers. Our goal is to extend Common Lisp's ecosystem
and to solve realworld problems using the most powerful programming language.

Main ideas
----------

1. Impossible is possible.
2. Code should be clear and maintainable.
3. Help community by making more opensource projects with good documentation.

Our roadmap
-----------

1. Rebuild and resurrect [Weblocks][] web framework.
2. Create a convenient way to add more libraries to a quicklisp distribution. Here we
   are working on [Ultralisp][] website.
3. To fix [Ceramic](https://github.com/ceramic/ceramic) to build desktop apps
   using Electron.
3. Figure out a way how to do the similar for mobile apps, may be by using
   React Native.
