Merged, and it works! @magma.chambers go ahead and spec your ❤️ out. Thanks for the suggestion.

@porkostomus Excellent, thanks very much 🙂 My spec solution passes, but my let* variant still doesn't, despite the update to babashka/sci @borkdude made here: https://github.com/babashka/sci/issues/696

Thanks very much for the change, btw: it'll be useful to get feedback on my specs once I make use of the mentoring option

🙂

@magma.chambers Updating to babashka 0.8.0 should fix let*

$ /usr/local/bin/bb --version
babashka v0.8.0
$ /usr/local/bin/bb -e '(let* [x 1] x)'
1

@borkdude This isn't a local change I'd make, right? Exercism is running my tests on submission

@magma.chambers exercism should upgrade to bb 0.8.0 and then the let* problem should be solved

The test-runner image is on babashka/babashka:0.8.1-SNAPSHOT-alpine and this solution passes:

(defn hello []
  (let* [x "Hello, World!"] x))

Oh, my bad

New error:
