Emacs Lisp is probably one of my favorite and most used programming languages outside of work. Emacs is a very pleasant environment to program in, because it's a Lisp image that you can poke and prod. I literally will do everyday math in Emacs Lisp now if I am at my computer.
Also, helpful tip: since Emacs Lisp is so old and LLMs are often based on old data, I find that tools like ChatGPT are very good at producing working Emacs Lisp.
This is helpful because I find that many Emacs functions and macros are not named in a way that is easy to search by.
