> Clojure (which unlike many languages is famously "just a library") how do you mean? "language features" implemented via macros? or something about its JVM im

  Both are true, but usually that means the latter. Clojure was designed to make it as easy as possible to rub a little bit of parens on an existing (JVM, though now also other platforms) project. That means being a hosted language that embraces interop very closely, and shipping the language as just a jar.

    ah, didn't know about that single JAR thing, thanks!
