- Bulk replace Clojure/Nim → Bara Lang in src/, lib/, examples/, benchmarks/, experiments/, books/, LICENSE, cljnim.nimble, PLAN.md, AI_AGENT.md - Rename book chapters: 05-clojure-nim.md → 05-bara-lang.md (en + bg) - Update all chapter index links and anchors - Replace project-specific 'Clojure' references with 'Bara Lang' in experiments/, src/ai_assist.nim, src/tui_screens.nim, src/emitter.nim, src/reader.nim, src/types.nim, lib/cljnim_runtime*.nim - Keep legitimate JVM Clojure/ClojureScript/Clojure CLR references intact

Bara Lang → JavaScript
Compile Bara Lang code to JavaScript via Nim's JS backend.
Why?
- No JVM — Bara Lang in the browser without 50MB runtime
- No JavaScript — write Bara Lang, get JS
- Smaller than ClojureScript — no Google Closure compiler needed
Quick Start
./build.sh
Then open www/index.html in a browser.
How it works
cljnim compile-lib— generates Nim with exported functionsjs_wrappers.nim— thin wrappers that convert CljVal ↔ JS typesnim js— compiles Nim to JavaScript- Browser loads
math.jsand callsjsSquare(7),jsFactorial(5), etc.
Limitations
- Full
cljnim_runtime.nimuses C FFI (threads, processes) — not JS-compatible - For now, only numeric and string functions work
- Persistent data structures need JS-specific runtime
Future
- Full JS runtime for HAMT vectors/maps
- DOM interop:
(dom/getElementById "app") - npm package output
