While working with ClojureScript I came across a interesting question. When compiling cljs files, how does Clojure handle macros? Normally macros are run at compile-time, but in this case the compile-time platform is completely different than the run time platform. My guess is that the compiler assumes that clojure.core.first (for instance) functions exactly the same for both the JVM and the JS versions of Clojure, but I could be wrong there. The only other possibility I can see is if ClojureScript has some internal JS VM it uses only for macro expanding.
So what is the situation here?
