clojure / clojure-clr

A port of Clojure to the CLR, part of the Clojure project

ClojureCLR

This project is a native implementation of Clojure on the Common Language Runtime (CLR), the execution engine of Microsoft's .Net Framework.

ClojureCLR is programmed in C# (and Clojure itself).

Goals

• Implement a feature-complete Clojure on top of CLR
• Stay as close as possible to the JVM implementation
• Have some fun

Getting Started

ClojureCLR can either run as a a standalone application, or embedded as a library in .NET applications. See the getting started guide for instructions on how to install, run or integrate ClojureCLR.

Documentation

Most of the documentation for Clojure should be equally applicable to ClojureCLR. See the ClojureCLR wiki and the articles under the docs directory in this repository for documentation specific to the ClojureCLR project.

Community and Support

• The #clr channel in the Clojurians Slack
• The ClojureCLR category in Ask Clojure
• ClojureCLR JIRA is used for issue tracking. Note that creating issues in the Clojure JIRA requires signing a contributor agreement. Minor issues might be easier to raise on Slack.

Libraries

Many of the standard libraries from JVM Clojure have CLR ports.
