About:
Planck is a stand-alone ClojureScript REPL environment that runs directly on your system without requiring a JVM. It leverages the JavaScriptCore engine on macOS or SpiderMonkey on Linux/Windows to provide fast startup times and low memory usage. This makes it ideal for scripting, quick experiments, and learning ClojureScript without the overhead of a full development environment.
Key Features:
  • Immediate startup and low resource footprint
  • Full ClojureScript standard library support
  • Integrated REPL with editor integration support
  • Works without a Java Virtual Machine (JVM)
Use Cases:
  • Rapid prototyping and experimentation with ClojureScript
  • System scripting and automation tasks
  • Interactive learning and education for ClojureScript
Alternatives:
  • Clojure – The JVM-based parent language; heavier but with full Java interop.
  • Lumo – A similar Node.js-based ClojureScript REPL, now largely superseded by Planck.
