Common Lisp is a standard programming language with a superlative development environment and excellent documentation. apache is a reliable, highly configurable web server. You can use an apache module, mod_lisp, to allow a lisp process to communicate with the apache web server. With this approach, you can dynamically generate web pages and provide web services with lisp programs. Below, I describe the way I created this site, which includes dynamically created content, served from a mysql database. The approach I describe is by no means the only way to use lisp programs to serve web pages.

Holy requirements Batman!

apache + mod_lisp + cmucl + lml + cl-ppcre + clsql + mysql

Yeah, what normal person would be able to duplicate all those requirements?
Must be hyped up on coffee and drugs to do all that and be unemployed to have time for it!

There's got to be a simpler way.
Isn't a "MOD" supposed to be a plug and play thing?!

In my experience Apache mod_s are generally not plug'n'play, but "recompile and pray."
