    As soon as you want npm packages however you need npm, yarn or anything that can create the proper node_modules folder. CLJSJS is not supported (and also partially deprecated anyways, see my blog for reasons why I dropped support) but cljs.main/figwheel.main using npm packages via :target :bundle are in the same boat at that point.

    Is this similar to Lumo (https://github.com/anmonteiro/lumo)? I would assume Lumo has a faster start time since it boots from a V8 snapshot, but otherwise I'd assume the two projects are similar (except that, of course, lumo is EOL)

    Lumo: a standalone ClojureScript environment, runs on Node.js. Doesn't seem to have its own reader conditional, uses :cljs.

    Lumo and Planck (standalone Clojurescript environments, based on Node and on JavaScriptCore with some additional functionality to make it suitable for scripting, respectively), and Clojerl (Clojure implemented on BEAM). Startup times are comparable to e.g. Racket.
