jank, a Clojure implementation compiled to native C++, has significantly improved its error reporting system, including accurate stack traces for uncaught runtime exceptions and C++ interop errors. The project also introduced an official native package repository, providing a centralized source for C++ packages compatible with jank.
Background
jank is a next-generation Clojure implementation that compiles directly to native code using LLVM, aiming to combine Clojure's expressiveness with the performance of native applications. This update addresses long-standing gaps in error reporting when Clojure code interacts with C++ runtime.
