Does Wisp have any facility for namespaces - I didn't see anything about that in the link?
They have being added recently and more clojure compatibility is planned for the future.

#52As somebody who contributes to ClojureScript, I genuinely do not understand the purpose of this project. If you want a JavaScript with Lispy syntax, there are a few things like http://lispyscript.com/ -- Spiritually similar to CoffeeScript. But if you want Clojure semantics, there is ClojureScript: Very different than a simple transpiler like CoffeeScript. ClojureScript includes a standard library of rich data struct…
I like ClojureScript and use it a lot lately. Sometimes however it feels a little distant from JavaScript at times. This can be frustrating at times. Wisp is somewhere between ClojureScript and JavaScript. Of course this means that some of Clojure's features (protocols and lazy sequences, atoms, etc.) are not available. On the other hand there are not so many opaque layers between your code and the target code. Grant…

As a matter of fact I plan to provide protocols lazy sequences etc.. in form of (optional) libraries that can be included or omitted based on user use cases. I personally thing that most of these features are drawbacks when interacting with JS code, although I'd definitely used them in cases where interaction with JS is not a concern.
