Comment Comment by pjmlp > So, the conclusion: no we don't need a swift for Android, and clojure is not swift anyway.At very minimum we need Java 8, but I am willing to bet Google IO will not bring any news on that front.Currently I have been using Java/C++ for my mobile hobby programming as I also like to play around with WP (C++/CX).Regarding Clojure, maybe a static Lisp with Clojure syntax but with type inference could be a way to tackle the problem.It wouldn't be pure Clojure, but maybe good enough. parent pjmlp 11 years ago
