Dylan is a direct descendant of Scheme and CLOS (without the Lisp syntax) with a programming model designed to support efficient machine code generation, including fine-grained control over dynamic and static behaviors. We recommend starting with the Tour of Dylan, a quick (30 minute) overview of the language, and/or stop by and ask questions on Matrix. It has a fixed set of imports so you don’t have to worry about how to define libraries and modules right away.
