ClojureScript self-host compatible libs

[arichiardi]

Hello James!

So for me one of the biggest oddities of ClojureScript for novice folks is the difference between JVM vs self-host.

The problem is in the dependencies, where it is not always true that libraries for ClojureScript JVM are compatible with self-host. Actually this is rarely the case.

So my issue is about the platform. We could introduce a cljs-self-host (or shorter name) platform in order to flag the libs that are compatible with it.

The solution seems easy but maybe I am overlooking something in your data model.

I'm not against this in principle, but using a tag to communicate this information has two problems that I can see. Both "clj" and "cljs" are concise and self-explanatory. A tag like "cljs-self-host" is neither of these things. Perhaps we could introduce a key at the top explaining the tags somehow, but that would require more UI work.

Yeah well the UI can be can be an overlay icon. Not happy about this name and approach either by the way, that is was I was seeking some advice.
