The main difference is that nbb lets you execute a .cljs file straight away, without a compilation step. As such, it doesn't need any JVM tooling. You can create an AWS Lambda with only a couple of lines of code:

What are the language differences. What's missing in SCI's subset? Just Java stuff like deftype?

Multimethods are fully supported. Protocols, defrecord and deftype are supported with some caveats.
