Comment on Fargo: new Scheme-like language working in Node.js/browserparent

Comments

Clojure is a big language, and pretty deeply tied to the JVM; I'm not sure how you'd put it on V8. Scheme is pretty practical, though, once you get used to it.

The first version of Clojure was a Common Lisp compiler that compiled Clojure down to JS to be run on Rhino. There's interest in the Clojure community to have a Clojure "Light" that runs on V8 or SpiderMonkey.

I'd like to see it run in a browser also, that would be awesome.

Also, there's a .net version of clojure.. no?
