Babashka runs as a binary with fast startup time and uses
[sci](https://github.com/borkdude/sci) for interpreting Clojure, which results
in faster startup times:
``` shellsession ``` shellsession

A trade off is that [sci](https://github.com/borkdude/sci) implements only a
subset of Clojure. If you need more, feel free to post an issue or check out
other Clojure scripting tools
