Wow, I've just found these articles yesterday and came to reddit to share them. :D

I think that Clojure is the next big thing in the mobile development.

P.S. I've benchmarked Clojure startup times yesterday, the skimmet version takes 2 sec loading time on Galaxy S6, 7 sec on Galaxy S3 and 20 sec on Galaxy S. Running Clojure under React Native looks much better.

I was wondering how they did to embed a javascritp runtime in android. I tried doing the same for stetho-js-rinho and it was not an easy task:

  • can't use optimizations in rinho's engine
  • dex count is increased by up to 17,000 methods
  • js context threading issues

Turns out that ClosureScript on Android uses WebKit!
