- Try out this Wasm browser REPL https://gloathub.org/repl/
Gloat is a Glojure AOT automation tool.
I worked with James Hamlin to get Glojure AOT going last summer and have been moving it forward since. I've also been working with marcingas (nooga) to get Gloat/Glojure/let-go all cooperating.

- Micro nit: it says 7ms cold start and then 6ms just few lines lower.. maybe it gets faster as you read README
- Nice! I recently played around with a Lisp syntax for Go semantics: https://codeberg.org/veqq/Joe
As far as JVM-free Clojure-like, Janet is really nice. I've been using it in production for a while: https://janet-lang.org/ There's also Fennel if you want the Lua vm and libraries.
- This is the kind of clojure port that I always was looking for. Mostly because I thought go's core library and channels abstractions hits a simpler/nicer base API which would with the core & async apis (not to mention scratches my big beautiful binary itch)
Thanks for your work will definitely check it out again once I get over renewed love for cpp (26)
Edit how did glojure go under my radar also a great project from the looks
- An alternative is Joker: https://joker-lang.org
I think it is brilliant and completely underappreciated :)
- I wish this had a better language name than just "lets-go". How about "clogo" ?

- There seems to be a surge in compile to Go projects recently. To me this signals that the runtime / stdlib of Go is one of the best out there (when going the GD'd route), but the surface level (syntax) is too simple/verbose and lacks the expressiveness developers want.
So far Lisette (http://lisette.run) seems to be the best/most active version of a compile to Go language out there.
- PR most welcome for https://github.com/chr15m/awesome-clojure-likes

- I am finding i need "Rails" but i like single binary deployment of Go and fast/low resource usage like Go.
Is it possible for now?
- This is beautiful, makes me wish I'd made it.
Excellent work, thank you for sharing it with us ^_^
- You should see how fast libc gets mmaped() into the VM and the first instr runs :)

- jvm clojure's startup tax is exactly why it never cracked the serverless/cli niche, and this pure-go implementation is the kind of unhinged side project, good luck

- do you know about Glojure?

- absolutely sick of reading through obviously AI-slopped READMEs. it's your project, take a little pride and tell me why i should like it quickly instead of asking your agent to rattle off a list of features -- it's severely boring & offputting.
