Not my project. Just a thing that happens to be small and elegant and maximally “correct”, in its particular design direction. Community is small, creator is level-headed. Somehow, it does feel like exactly the language a Janet’s firmware would be written in. It brings me joy that such a thing exists.
You do have to look at it though: it takes up space on the left margin, pushing your code to the right. Plus, a decent syntax highlighter will make a Lisp’s parens about as subtle as whitespace. (You might call that cheating, but remember, what we call “text” is just a sequence of voltages etched on a silicon wafer; what we see on our displays is already a monumental abstraction.)
