~5 seconds from double clicking the app to the window appears (and starts to load HN) on my 2019 MBP. I think this is a really cool library. I use clojure daily and love it. But this app isn't a very compelling demo over electron atm.

Startup time can be made more or less instant with AOT-compilation of Clojure which is out of the scope of the example — it's purpose is to show packaging capabilities.

  how much extra work to add AOT step to the packing process?

    Haven't tried that, but the actual compilation is something like this: you need to create `classes` folder, add it to the classpath, call `clj -e "(do (compile 'hn.core) (javafx.application.Platform/exit))"`.
