WIP / very draft. exploring problems presented by running the lib in cljs.
Fixes #9
Rework of #11
problem 1:
https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/10372/is-it-possible-to-get-the-value-of-cljs-var-from-clojure-macro
notes
I'm pretty sure now that the way this library works is almost impossible to replicate in CLJS. CLJS macros don't have access to metadata or var's values at compilation time. A way around it would be to do all the work which the macro does at runtime, but the only way I can see that being possible inside EQL values is via a lookup of some sort. It's annoying that there's so much divergence between the two dialects in this regard.
Will be pausing this for a bit and see if inspiration strikes for another way of doing this.
