> What web frameworks are recommended If you're intent on using Common Lisp, check out: https://github.com/fukamachi/clack If you're willing to consider Clojure (widely used, actively developed, target platforms: JVM, browsers, CLR), there are _lots_ of options - I've had success using Ring/Compojure in small, web service projects. Check out Clojure Toolbox's "web frameworks" section: https://www.clojure-toolbox.com Otherwise, if you're interested in Scheme (Guile, in this case), Artanis looks promising: http://web-artanis.com/

Lisp Programmer here, - quicklisp is the default for package management. If you need to load a different version of a package you can use the local projects dir. I've never used Qi before, so I really can't say anything on it. - For a framework I would recommend either Clack[1] (relatively small but featureful) or Ningle[2] (micro-framework).Both support multiple backends including Huntchentoot. - There are object store databases and serializers like cl-store and cl-prevalence, but if you really want to take full advantage of Lisp I would recommend you use hash tables and reader macros. There's also plenty of mature (by lisp standards anyway) SQL APIs and ORMs like postmodern[3]. - For hosting I use AWS, haven't used anything else so can't say much on it.
