Really reminds me of Parenscript[0], which is a subset of Common Lisp that transpiles to JS with no runtime. It's basically a thin skin around JS and it feels more like writing JS with a Lisp syntax.

What I feel is missing from Parenscript is runtime macro-expansion, hard to do without using JS to build the AST.
