When should I choose Squint over Cherry?

Use Squint when you need the smallest possible bundle size and native JS interop; use Cherry when you need full ClojureScript compatibility and macro support.

Does this skill provide code examples for SCI?

Yes, it includes implementation patterns for initializing SCI contexts and evaluating sandboxed Clojure strings.

What tools are covered by the Borkdude skill?

It covers Michiel Borkent's ecosystem including Babashka (scripting), SCI (interpreter), Cherry and Squint (compilers), Scittle (browser), and nbb (Node.js).

Can this skill help with Babashka scripting?

Yes, it provides decision trees for scripting contexts and examples for extending functionality using Babashka Pods.

Provides expert guidance for selecting and implementing the optimal ClojureScript runtime based on specific execution contexts.

Acerca de

The Borkdude skill offers a comprehensive framework for navigating the modern Clojure and ClojureScript ecosystem, leveraging patterns from Michiel Borkent's influential tooling suite. It helps developers choose the right tool for the job by providing a clear runtime matrix and decision tree for Babashka, SCI, Cherry, Squint, Scittle, and nbb. Whether you are building fast-startup CLI tools, embedding sandboxed interpreters, or optimizing browser bundle sizes, this skill ensures you select the runtime that balances performance, compatibility, and ease of use.
