Do you envision the development to track clojure as much as is possible, similar to how cljs was conceived to be clojure in js and not just clojure-ish js, or do you think you'll eventually diverge? I made a language a while ago that was like 90% clojure but hesitated to call it that because I didn't want there to be an expectation that the same code would run as-is in both languages. Seems like from the landing page you're going for more of a drop in replacement. Look cool, good luck!

jank is Clojure and will track upstream Clojure development. I'm working closely with the Clojure team and other dialect devs to ensure this remains the case. I am leading a cross-dialect clojure-test-suite to help ensure parity across all dialects: https://github.com/jank-lang/clojure-test-suite We have support or work ongoing for Clojure JVM, ClojureScript, Clojure CLR, babashka, Basilisp, and jank.

With that said, jank will do some trail blazing down other paths (see my other comments here about Carp), but they will be optional modes which people can enable which are specific to jank. Clojure compatibility will remain constant.
