A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Jake, well even now I can write as my example, define enums and strings, and use them as keywords... but keyword concept is a bit more - it defines and uses at the same time and it evaluates to itself, or is a function

I think Clojure, as language, is a much better fit for this kind of programming style.

Yes.
But Kotlin also is very close to data-driven programming paradigm. We have top level functions... and we have very nice data primitives...
I think one can write very similar programs as in Clojure... just some syntactic sugar might get it even closer... It's just we - OOP folk are not used to this kind of doing stuff, but Kotlin lets it do.

Kotlin has static type system. It does not mix well with keywords (or symbols as they are called sometimes). Frankly, I don’t know a single statically typed language that has anything like them. I think there is a good reason for it.
