Aren't they calling C++ functions via LLVM? Their implementation language shouldn't affect their ability to _generate_ code that uses the C++ ABI.

- pjmlp 2y agoIf it is a Clojure dialect, implementated on top of a compiler construction kit written in C++, generating C++, and calling into C++ libraries, what is the benefit of rewriting part of it in Rust, complicating the whole toolchain, only to write some blog post about the rewrite? If it is about additional safety, in any regard, self hosting would be the answer, not Rust.
