Although I don't think it fits the bill as Clojure-y, there is a lisp-y language that transpiles to python ast, and is fully interoperable with python itself. It's called hy (https://docs.hylang.org/en/stable/). It's a great language, but it's a little young, and I bumped up against what I felt were limitations pretty quick.

Conjure doesn't touch it... yet.

I've had a look at Hy and really wanted to like it, but there were a few language decisions that I just couldn't get past. Can't remember what they were, though 😕

Maybe I should just try a project with it and see how it works in practice.
walterl 2020-09-03T16:30:01.016700Z
In fact, maybe I'll try both Fennel and Hy for a nice comparison 🙂

And babashka :babashka:

Babashka seems fantastic for tooling

We're using it a fair bit in anger I think
Olical 2020-09-03T16:33:01.017500Z
To replace JS and bash things

Conjure works with bb
walterl 2020-09-03T16:41:25.017900Z
bb's limited ecosystem is my biggest gripe there. Otherwise it's really great.
