@ -38,22 +38,6 @@ As one user described it:
* Provide a mixed Clojure/Bash DSL (see portability).
* Replace existing shells. Babashka is a tool you can use inside existing shells like bash and it is designed to play well with them. It does not aim to replace them.
### Setting expectations
Babashka uses [sci](https://github.com/borkdude/sci) for interpreting
Clojure. Sci implements a substantial subset of Clojure. Interpreting code is in
general not as performant as executing compiled code. If your script takes more
than a few seconds to run or has lots of loops, Clojure on the JVM may be a
better fit as the performance on JVM is going to outweigh its
startup time penalty. Read more about the differences with Clojure
[here](#differences-with-clojure).
### Talk

## Status
Functionality regarding `clojure.core` and `java.lang` can be considered stable
and is unlikely to change. Changes may happen in other parts of babashka,
although we will try our best to prevent them. Always check the release notes or
[CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) before upgrading.
