ClojureScript is not yet self-hosting. That is, the compiler does not run in the browser, although quite a few people want it to, so it's being worked on a bit.

ClojureScript is not yet self-hosting. That is, the compiler does not run in the browser, although quite a few people want it to, so it's being worked on a bit.
That said, I haven't found it to have any serious impact on my development experience. There is no compile-debug-refresh cycle because I can evaluate forms against the browser REPL remotely. Compilation occurs server side and the JavaScript code is eval-ed on the client.

- kybernetikos 14y agoYes, when you can update parts of the code on the page with a streaming connection it's a little bit different. I guess I'll give ClojureScript a pass on that one, but it's not a feature that nonlisp systems seem very keen on integrating so far.
