Jolt is a self-hosted Clojure implementation that compiles to Scheme (Chez natively, Gambit for JavaScript), offering standalone binaries, real concurrency, and full Clojure semantics without the JVM.

Jolt is a new Clojure implementation targeting Chez Scheme, aiming to provide a drop-in replacement with fast startup and low memory footprint, leveraging Chez's JIT and GC to avoid the JVM's overhead.
