This free online converter lets you convert code from Clojure to Grain in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
| Characteristic | Clojure | Grain |
|---|---|---|
| Syntax | Lisp-like, uses lots of parentheses, prefix notation, minimalistic and homoiconic. | ML-inspired, uses indentation and braces, more conventional and readable for those familiar with functional languages. |
| Paradigm | Functional-first, supports immutable data structures, also supports concurrency and some object-oriented features. | Purely functional, emphasizes immutability and strong type safety, no object-oriented features. |
| Typing | Dynamically typed, optional static typing via core.typed. | Statically typed with strong type inference. |
| Performance | Runs on the JVM, generally good performance, benefits from JVM optimizations. | Compiles to WebAssembly, optimized for fast startup and execution in web environments. |
| Libraries and frameworks | Rich ecosystem, access to Java libraries, many mature frameworks for web, data, and concurrency. | Smaller ecosystem, limited libraries, focused on WebAssembly and web development. |
| Community and support | Large, active community, extensive documentation, many learning resources. | Small but growing community, less documentation and fewer resources. |
| Learning curve | Steep for those unfamiliar with Lisp syntax and functional programming. | Moderate, easier for those with ML or functional programming background, but limited resources may make learning harder. |
