ClojureCLR is a native implementation of Clojure on Microsoft’s .Net Framework,
programmed in C# and using the Dynamic Language Runtime (Expression Trees V2).
Clojure is a Lisp variant designed by Rich Hickey to encourage a functional programming style with support for multithreading and access to the Java VM. See the Clojure web site for more information.
- Implement a feature-complete Clojure on top of CLR/DLR.
- Stay as close as possible to the JVM implementation.
- Spawn a cottage industry of people making Visual Studio extensions for Clojure. :)
- Have some fun.
The current release is for those willing to do a little work getting things to run.
Specifically, the Installing ClojureCLR / Compiling ClojureCLR / Running ClojureCLR instructions assume that you have Visual Studio,
that you are willing to download various bits and pieces, and are willing to put up with manual build step
that I haven’t had time to automate yet.
The current release supports much of the functionality of the JVM version.
Most of the runtime data structures are implemented; 95% of the core bootstrap environment loads;
AOT-compilation is supported. Performance does not yet match the JVM version.
See To Do for more information on remaining coding tasks.
