    For me it's microcontrollers, however I've heard in spite of the unmaintained status, clojure-scheme[1] is very usable. It uses gambit to produce C-code you can compile anywhere.

    > But wouldn't it make more sense to first rewrite Clojure itself in some small/minimal scheme-y subset of Clojure

    How about Scheme?: https://github.com/takeoutweight/clojure-scheme

    lokke seems to use Guile's tooling (compiler tower, to be specific) to compile clojure-esque code to objects understood by said Guile's tooling. This is a little different from Clojurescript's approach which use ClojureJVM to transpile to javascript. There was actually another Clojure to Scheme project that leverages Clojurescript JVM transpiler: https://github.com/takeoutweight/clojure-scheme - It targets Gambit scheme instead of Guile
