This free online converter lets you convert code from Clojure to Swift in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Clojure code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Swift code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Clojure to Swift using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Clojure and Swift
Characteristic | Clojure | Swift |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Clojure has a Lisp-like syntax with a focus on simplicity and immutability. | Swift has a C-like syntax with a focus on readability and expressiveness. |
Paradigm | Clojure is a functional programming language that also supports imperative and object-oriented programming. | Swift is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming. |
Typing | Clojure is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | Swift is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time. |
Performance | Clojure is known for its good performance due to its efficient data structures and JVM integration. | Swift is designed to be fast and efficient, with performance comparable to C and C++. |
Libraries and frameworks | Clojure has a rich ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Ring and Compojure for web development. | Swift has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including popular ones like Alamofire and SwiftUI. |
Community and support | Clojure has a small but dedicated community with active support from the Clojure core team. | Swift has a large and active community with official support from Apple. |
Learning curve | Clojure has a steep learning curve due to its functional programming concepts and Lisp syntax. | Swift has a relatively gentle learning curve, especially for developers familiar with C-like languages. |
