Main library for Chlorine compiler (a subset of Clojure to javascript)

Chlorine

Chlorine (formerly Clojurejs) is a naive implementation of a Clojure subset language to Javascript translator. Chlorine is an attempt to implement the predictable semantics in the generated Javascript. Some of its features are:

• Consistent scoping in let and loop/recur forms
• Macros with defmacro
• Implicit return from all forms
• loop/recur translates to Javascript for loops
• case translates to Javascript switch/case
• Translates Clojure vectors, strings, keywords, symbols and maps to Javascript equivalents
• File-based dependencies through load-file and load-file-macros
• Clojure destructuring forms in functions and let

Chlorine is available under the Eclipse Public License - v 1.0.
