For me the most interesting compilation target for Clojure is Dart. Writing Flutter apps in Clojure would be the dog's spherical objects. David Nolen thinks likewise and has commented on it in a recent defn podcast. Christophe Grand and Baptiste Dupuch are the brains behind it: https://twitter.com/cgrand/status/1350063059864346624?lang=e...



Has Flutter really become that popular and awesome? I feel I'm still seeing a lot more of React Native or Electron and other JS based front-ends in the wild, for which ClojureScript is best suited. I'm not sure I'm convinced Flutter will be able to break through those even with Google behind it.


I feel like it's picking up steam.

I've written a few things in it and found fewer footguns than React Native.

Granted, it comes with its own set of idiosyncracies, breaking version changes, half baked community libraries and developer ecosystem, but that's par for the course.
