Yes they did, maybe take a look at the repo, the core vt layer is rust everything around it is in js(it's not cljs, you might ponder why not).

Well sure, but the important parts aren’t in JS. I can understand the argument that to provide npm library you may need to touch that garbage of a language, I’m just happy others do it for me.

The entire project used to be cljs, so obviously it's done on purpose, that is stated in the article.
