Category: devtools

Tags: clojure, compiler, vm, golang, bytecode

Score: 7.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 9, Documentation: 8, Utility: 6)

let-go is a Clojure dialect with a bytecode compiler and stack VM written in Go, achieving fast startup and low resource usage without the JVM. It passes the full Clojure test suite, supports most core features, and runs on Plan 9 and ReMarkable 2, making it a novel approach to portable Clojure scripting and CLI development.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, cli enthusiasts
