Fennel is fucking dope, I love it. It feels Clojuresque, yet, it still is more like "Lispy Lua" than Clojure. I don't know enough about compilers and building a language, but to me it feels like the design of Fennel was more accidental and the main goal was to sustain "virtually zero overhead" to run on Lua, not to bring the best ideas from Clojure.
Jeaye, in contrast, seems to be taking a more deliberate approach in designing the language, not only taking the best ideas from Clojure but also trying to improve upon them.
