One idea you could try is using the same conversion that parenscript does

• T
• F
• FALSE
• NIL
• UNDEFINED

T and FALSE (or F) are converted to their JavaScript boolean equivalents true and false.

NIL is converted to the JavaScript keyword null.

UNDEFINED is converted to the JavaScript global variable undefined.

https://parenscript.common-lisp.dev/reference.html#ssection-booleans

Only concern here would be the use of NIL since you would then have to consider the overlap of NIL and (). If you represent JS arrays as CL arrays this wouldn't be an issue.

Anyways just a thought that may interest you.

You are absolutely correct that they are out of date, unfortunately. I'll see if I can update them this evening or so. I will also make a real list of actionable task for me and/others to work on so that it will be actually useful.

I'm struggling a bit on the coersion between nil/false/null/true problem in lisp vs js, but we'll get there :)

Also I finally have some summer holidays, so there's that :)

Thanks for your interest!
