Yes but Leiningen is not distributed with Clojure. And as far as I remember there is no installer for Leiningen on Windows. Right now I find it is available through Chocolatey, but the main Leiningen page asks users to download and run a batchfile. That's a very strange instruction to ask a windows user to do: Running batch files downloaded from the internet goes against so much advice on computer security that is given to users.

"Then run:

Invoke-Expression (New-Object System.Net.WebClient) .DownloadString('https://download.clojure.org/install/win-install-1.10.1.536....

There's also no clj installer for Windows although there is a Scoop package.
