Are there extensible environments in the manner of Emacs outside of text editors and developer tools generally?

Smalltalk

And while not Lisp, Squeak surely fits the bill there. Imagine the Small talk version of the old Lisp machines.

Webpack

Live reloading servers for web-languages like WebPack, Rollup.js, and Elm-Live let you make changes to code and see them immediately. It is easy to think about creating your own extensible app environment by including one of these live code reloading tools along with a web-based text editor like CodeMirror, perhaps serving the text editor itself with Rollup.js or WebPack, and using the editor to edit it's own code, that would make it fairly Emacs-like.

Jupyter

JupyterLab is basically iPython notebooks but extended to multiple languages. You install a language "kernel" which is basically a thing to provide a programming language as a server which can execute the cells of a notebook. You can compose documents that contain executable code and produce interactive graphics. It has a plugin system so you can develop and install your own GUI elements. I could see someone extending JupyterLab to make it more like Org-Mode someday.

Pure Data

A rather interesting, non-text-editor, non-developer-tool example is node-based audio synthesis environments, like Pure Data or Max/MSP). The language, or the environment, provides basic building blocks and primitives, and the user can implement whatever kind of sequencing, audio synthesis, and processing they need using them.
