If no then why nobody has made it already?

[–] Robin@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

Because there are no websites with tags. No website require it so no browsers support it so no websites require it so..

If you made a browser run lisp, it would only be useful for web pages that are scripted with lisp. Most web sites are currently scripted in JavaScript. Adding lisp support to a browser is the easy part. It's like deciding Latin is a better language then English, and then learning it. If you then came here and started using only Latin, it probably wouldn't be very satisfying.
