Shameless plug, but kinda related, you might appreciate this Richard.

Implemented this a few years ago, it’s not finished but I may work again on it if people like it or want to see it finished.

Merl looks fun but I really really hate epp-like macros and code in strings, I guess it does work in the end though.

> Currently missing: I'd like to have a good API for working with a "module" as an ADT, easily adding and removing definitions and querying the current state, and also reading an existing module from file or as an AST in a parse transform. The file "examples/merl_build.erl" is a start, but I don't have time right now to work more on that. Useful sources of inspiration for such an API are https://github.com/yariv/erlyweb/blob/master/src/smerl/smerl.erl and https://github.com/uwiger/parse_trans.
