 ## Why does this project exist?
 
 Basilisp is a project I (@chrisrink10) created to learn about Python, Clojure,
 hosted  languages, and compilers.
 
 That said, it is generally stable at this point with reasonably high test

 applications and tools at this point, though I would not recommend it unless you
