Re: [ClojureScript] Turning off optimization to speed compilation during development

[Daniel Compton]

There are a few places where the recommended optimisation settings could be documented better which would save people this confusion in the future: https://github.com/emezeske/lein-cljsbuild/blob/master/README.md - shows a project using whitespace optimisations, doesn’t really talk about the options available and when to use them. https://github.com/emezeske/lein-cljsbuild/blob/1.0.3/example-projects/advanced/project.clj - shows whitespace and advanced optimisations. Also the comments suggest :whitespace is the lowest level of optimisations (I guess it is depending on how you look at it) https://github.com/emezeske/lein-cljsbuild/blob/1.0.3/example-projects/simple/project.clj - shows whitespace optimisations I assume that lowering the optim On 1/12/2014, at 12:20 pm, Colin Fleming <colin.mailingl...@gmail.com> wrote: Closure is not an advantage in many desirable JS environments: Node.js, node-webkit, Atom shell, iOS, etc. I assume you're talking about the Closure library here, not the compiler? Surely the compiler would be advantageous in all environments? I'd have thought that aspects of the library would be too (string/date handling etc) but I guess its value is diminished somewhat.

It is not "crucial" for ClojureScript to be self-hostable, but yes it would be a nice *option*. A significant amount of progress has already been done to make this possible. The only reason it hasn't been done yet is because no one has yet has stepped up and pushed it past the finish line with a series of patches. The remaining tasks: * Portable tools.reader * Macroexpander written in Clojure * Conditional compilation tweaks (feature expressions) to pick the right host type (clojure.core.PersistentVector vs. cljs.core/PersistentVector) > Making CLJS compiler completely independent from Java seems infeasible, since Google Closure is written in Java itself, and Closure is one of the main advantages IMO over other languages that sit on top of _javascript_.
