A Clojure implementation on Chez Scheme. Self-hosted compiler, Clojure-compatible standard library, no JVM.
(yooo Awesome project!!!)
Yeah, the whole Chez set up is basically just for the development of Jolt itself, and
bin/joltcgets evaluated in a Chez runtime when you run it from the project. The homebrew version is the optimized release binary. Also no idea why the naming is different, seems like unnecessary confusion. :)BTW, you probably do want to support
schemeas the executable: https://cisco.github.io/ChezScheme/csug/use.html#g6I do have my own repl though if you just run
joltcyou’ll get an interactive Clojure session that way too, or you can dojoltc nrepl-serverto get nREPL going and connect an editor.Yes, this is only really relevant for Jolt contributors, not users.
Oh yeah, that’s a good point, for implementing the Scheme layer having that exposed could be useful. :)
