ClojureCLR can already run on .NET 5.0 . https://github.com/clojure/clojure-clr/wiki/Getting-started It looks like the 1.11.0 beta has a build for .NET 6.0. Very likely, when it is released, .NET 6.0 will be supported.…

I think I'd have a look at ClojureScript and/or Clojure CLR ( https://github.com/clojure/clojure-clr ). The former is Clojure on top of Javascript, the latter Clojure on top of .Net. It will not be easy, but I'm no expert. I'm also not…

Yes: https://github.com/clojure/clojure-clr Clojure can run in the CLR, so if you have .net/mono you can (presumably, untested) run clojurescript onto top of the CLR If you could port clojure to emitting LLVM bytecode or similar then it…
