Nice! I really wish we could have a CLJS -> JS compiler in pure JS (something like TypeScript) and no need for JVM or JVM libs.

This exists and is called self-hosted ClojureScript. To be clear, you don't need that nor do you need a JVM to write joyscript scripts, as the scripts are interpreted by SCI, a Clojure interpreter:

I thought Lumo was this, tough that project might be dead. ShadowCljs is pretty close.

Lumo is one instance of what you can do with self-hosted CLJS and yes, the project is unfortunately dead.
