Show HN: Trader News – Hacker News for Finance

Category: web-framework

Tags: common-lisp, arc, hacker-news, port, runtime, web-framework

Score: 4.8/10 (Innovation: 3, Technical: 5, Documentation: 7, Utility: 4)

Sharc is an independent Arc-to-Common-Lisp runtime that boots the Arc language on SBCL, allowing Hacker News and other Arc programs to run unmodified. It includes a full port of Arc's core, a test suite, and deployment details for running the News application, but it serves primarily as a technical experiment and compatibility layer rather than a broadly needed tool.

Target audience: Lisp developers, Hacker News enthusiasts, and developers interested in language runtimes
