Most of my patches to scriptjure originated when I was porting a CoffeeScript codebase to Scriptjure. The only major features of CoffeeScript that it doesn't have that I notice are implicit returns and well indented js output. Of course Scriptjure is not Clojure on JS. It's just JS with Clojure syntax and a few nice "compiler" tricks. Being able to jump out to real Clojure inside your Clojure-looking JS with a simple (clj (some real clojure code)) comes in really handy when the backend is also Clojure and you have some data that both the client and server need. You can also configure Emacs+mozrepl so that if you eval some scriptjure code in emacs it gets compiled to js and evaled in your web browser.
