Clojurescript is the more "all the way down" of the two. It managed to self-host a few months ago so in theory you could write a backend and cross compile to your computing platform of choice. I know of a number of alternative targets but they all predate the self-hosting and none are actively maintained:
[1] https://github.com/takeoutweight/clojure-scheme https://github.com/takeoutweight/clojure-scheme
[2] https://github.com/raph-amiard/clojurescript-lua https://github.com/raph-amiard/clojurescript-lua
I think it'd be a fun project to get cljs-lua working and build a system for developing OpenResty apps but it's so low on my priority list I don't anticipate ever making it happen.
- BMarkmann 11y agoHas anyone tried to get a Clojure-in-Clojure on the JVM working? Similar to PyPy or something of that ilk... I think even Shen (or even some branch of arc, I believe) would be more along those lines?
- grayrest 11y agoI've heard people talk about it but I'm not aware of anybody actually trying it. I know that Rich has stated a number of times that he's not interested in working on Clojure-in-Clojure.
