Thanks, Dan, and a good point you are making. Actually I have that information in the same paragraph, why it it is important. The publishing company was discussing if ClojureScript is a language, a scripting language, a compiler, etc. They had a tutorial on CoffeeScript in the last edition, and CoffeeScript uses "CoffeeScript is a little language that compiles into JavaScript." I'm looking for the best equivalent of that sentence for ClojureScript.
