Description
When #inst values are parsed and printed in Clojure, by default the Gregorian calendar is used. In particular, this is a hybrid Julian / Gregorian calendar with a changeover in 1582.
On the other hand, ClojureScript uses the JavaScripts Date type for #inst values, which employs a proleptic Gregorian calendar. This host-specific aspect is reflected in #inst parsing and printing.
A consequence of this difference in default #inst handling is that older dates will be interpreted differently. For example #inst "1500" denotes two different instances in time in Clojure vs. ClojureScript.
This could be detailed in the "Differences" page, perhaps in the reader section.
