Clojure is a robust, practical, and fast programming language with a set of useful features that together form a simple, coherent, and powerful tool. Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language, yet remains completely dynamic, every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection. Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When a mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system.

TrifleJS is a headless browser designed for test automation, utilizing the .NET WebBrowser class and the V8 JavaScript engine to emulate Internet Explorer environments. Its API is modeled after PhantomJS, making it familiar to users of that framework. TrifleJS supports various versions of Internet Explorer, allowing emulation of IE7, IE8, and IE9, depending on the installed version. Developers can execute scripts via the command line, specifying the desired IE version for emulation. The platform offers an interactive mode (REPL) for debugging and testing JavaScript code.
