rewrite-clj 2026-09-17

hey @lee , would you be interested if i adapted rewrite-clj to read/parse cljr?

Yeah, that sounds interesting! It has crossed my mind from time to time. Just to be super clear, you are talking about https://github.com/clojure/clojure-clr , yes?

yes, the clojure dialect on the dot net runtime, c# and f# etc

i don't know what it would take to get rewrite-clj to run on cljr, but i think we could at least get rewrite-clj to read and produce nodes

So many dialects out there now!

I'm guessing we could get it working in entirety

i just gotta set up cljr on my personal computer first, so i can properly test lol

I think @seancorfield might have ported some lib(s) to clojure-clr?

we can also lean on @dmiller a little lol

Sweet! I have a Windows 10 VM running on VirtualBox that I use for Windows testing. Is that the kind of setup you are gonna go for, Noah?

i think dot net is cross platform now? but an actual windows machine like yours is ideal

I have only tinkered with ClojureCLR. I have it installed on Ubuntu (WSL2 on Windows) and mostly keep it up-to-date. I have occasionally installed it on Windows but I almost never touch Powershell (or cmd).

I have not (yet) seriously tried to test/port any of my libraries to ClojureCLR but HoneySQL is on my list.
