For reference, Clojure has the ^ (caret) read syntax to attach metadata
to objects like this:

General   ^{:key1 val1 :key2 val2 ...}
Abbrevs   ^Type → ^{:tag Type}
           ^:key → ^{:key true}
Common    ^:dynamic ^:private ^:doc ^:const
Examples  (defn ^:private ^String my-fn ...)
           (def ^:dynamic *dyn-var* val)

{...} is Clojure's ordinary read syntax for a map (hash table).
