Small Clojure Interpreter

Small Clojure Interpreter is a Clojure implementation available on GitHub. It's designed for developers interested in Clojure programming or those who want a lightweight interpreter for the language. The project provides a way to run Clojure code without requiring the full Java-based environment, making it useful for learning, experimentation, or embedded scenarios where a smaller footprint is needed.

  I made a Clojure-like language in Go, boots in 7msMay 2026 · github.com · ▲292

  Let-go is a Clojure-like language (~90% compatible with JVM Clojure) written in pure Go. It ships as a ~10MB static binary and cold boots in ~7ms - that's about 50x faster than JVM and 3x faster than Babashka. It has decent throughput on algorithmic workloads - within ballpark of the GraalVM-backed sci. I started this project in 2021 as an elaborate practical joke: I wanted to have an excuse for writing Clojure while pretending to write Go. Jokes aside, it turned out to be pretty decent: it feels like real Clojure, it has an nREPL server (supported in Calva, CIDER, etc.), it's easily…
