Of the JVM languages, AFAIK only Kotlin is making a serious push to get off the JVM using something like LLVM. Interesting idea, though I wonder how long they can preserve compatibility between JVM and native targets.
Scala native doesn't feel like it has the same impact, perhaps in part due to a lack of momentum (as I perceive it).
- fulafel 6y agoClojure exists outside the JVM as well (ClojureScript, Babashka, ClojureCLR)
- blandflakes 6y agoIt does, but not in the same platform-antagonistic way. Clojure instead embraces many different platforms and runs on them through various dialects; Kotlin wants to become a platform.
- kaba0 6y agoScala preceded it with both Scala Native and ScalaJS.
