Does Squint support standard Clojure keywords?

In Squint, keywords compile directly to JavaScript strings, which facilitates seamless interop with JS libraries while maintaining Clojure's syntax.

What is the primary benefit of using Squint over standard ClojureScript?

Squint provides a much smaller runtime (~10KB vs ~100KB) because it uses native JavaScript data structures instead of persistent immutable ones, leading to faster interop and smaller bundles.

Can I run Squint files directly without a manual build step?

Yes, you can use the 'npx squint run' command to execute ClojureScript files directly in a Node.js environment.

Is Squint compatible with React or JSX?

Squint focuses on minimal JS output and does not include built-in JSX support; for full CLJS semantics with JSX, the Cherry runtime is usually preferred.

How do I handle JS interop in Squint?

Interop is native and seamless; you can call JS functions and access objects directly using Clojure syntax without needing complex conversion macros.

Compiles ClojureScript code into minimal, high-performance JavaScript with near-zero runtime overhead.

Squint Runtime is a specialized Claude Code skill that enables developers to leverage Clojure's expressive syntax while generating lightweight, native JavaScript output. Unlike traditional ClojureScript, Squint utilizes native JS data structures like objects and arrays and treats keywords as strings, resulting in an extremely small runtime footprint of approximately 10KB. This skill is ideal for developers who want Clojure ergonomics without the weight of persistent immutable data structures, making it perfect for small scripts, seamless library interop, and performance-critical web applications where bundle size matters.
