squint VS mugshot

Have you considered https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint ?

Personally I couldn't let go of Clojure's other advantages but at least using the syntax would let you step off the syntax churn bus

Interesting, in the CLJS space we recently got two new libraries in this space:

https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint Which is a thin layer on top of JS

https://github.com/squint-cljs/cherry Which is closer to CLJS semantics and data structures but compiles to .mjs files without any advanced optimizations etc.

I've also experimented a bit with Solid. Here's a SolidJS demo in squint: https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint/blob/main/examples/solidjs/src/App.cljs It runs over here: https://squint-cljs.github.io/demos/squint/solidjs/ (The JS output is smaller than the favicon in that project!)

Maybe Squint https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint or Cherry might fit the bill. https://github.com/squint-cljs/cherry

Should you need a minimal sprinkle of JS, you can still generate this server side using squint (which works as a JVM library) as well, while shipping a pretty small JS library to your client.

Sounds like there's some overlap with squint there!

I use tsdoc + typedoc to generate the documentation for Mugshot, a visual regression testing library. You can see the docs at http://nighttrax.github.io/mugshot/ and the code at https://github.com/NiGhTTraX/mugshot. I found it pretty useful to write the documentation close to the code so that users of the library will get a nice experience in their IDE when they hover over methods and on top of that also generate some pretty online docs.
