Gloat compiles Clojure & YAMLScript to native binaries and Wasm

binary/wasm
Gloat takes your Clojure or YAMLScript source code and compiles it through multiple stages to produce standalone executables, WebAssembly modules, or shared libraries.
Each intermediate format can be output for inspection or further processing.
Key Features¶
Zero Dependencies
All tools (Go, Glojure, YAMLScript) auto-install on first use. No manual setup required.
Cross-Compile
Build for Linux, macOS, Windows, FreeBSD, and more. Multiple architectures: amd64, arm64, 386.
WebAssembly
Compile to Wasm for browser or WASI environments. Run your code anywhere.
Shared Libraries
Create .so/.dylib/.dll files with C headers. Integrate with any language via FFI.
Transparent Pipeline
Output any intermediate format (Clojure, Glojure, Go). Understand and debug every step.
Portable Builds
Generate standalone Go project directories. Build anywhere with just Make.
Quick Example¶
# Compile to native binary
gloat hello.ys
# Cross-compile for Windows
gloat app.clj -o app.exe -p windows/amd64
# Create WebAssembly module
gloat program.ys -o program.wasm
# Output intermediate formats
gloat code.ys -t clj # See generated Clojure
gloat code.ys -t glj # See generated Glojure
gloat code.ys -t go # See generated Go
