TL;DR:
1. Lumo runs ClojureScript without the need for a JVM. It relies on Node.js and Google V8.
2. ClojureScript compiler is self-hosted, thus:
3. Now you can compile ClojureScript without the need for a JVM. As a bonus, enjoy shorter start-up times.
- ambulancechaser 9y agoI think the article was saying that the javascript version of the google closure library is slower than the jvm based version so this would actually be a little bit slower. Further, it has a serious restriction in that the version of cljs used by lumo itself is now the version of cljs that your project must use. The cljs version is a pretty serious caveat but this seems like a really nice milestone on quite a bit of work. kudos to anmonteiro
