You will probably have more luck getting help in the Clojurescript group. The clojurescript-in-clojurescript project you found is defunct. In the meantime normal Clojurescript has gotten much closer to being self-hosted and work towards that end is probably best done on Clojurescript itself instead of a work. This page outlines the work remaining: https://github.com/clojure/clojurescript/wiki/Bootstrapping-the-Compiler It's still not an insignificant amount of work.
However, are you really sure you can't keep a jvm around for compiling clojurescript? Sure it'd be nice if it were self-hosted, but I think people exaggerate how necessary it is. If it really is an absolute requirement, consider WISP https://github.com/Gozala/wisp which is clojure-ish and hosted on js, but does *not* have clojure's fancy immutable data structures. (Those data structures are at least 80% of the reason to use Clojure IMO.) You can use other JS libraries to get them back, but they won't be native to WISP. E.g. immutable-js from facebook, or mori (which is really clojurescript compiled as a js library, hah!) scripts/compile is a red herring. You need script/bootstrap.
