Hi I've been using Haxe for years as an altjs (and did the haxe external defs for node.js) , so i'm biased to compile to js, rather than raw js.
That said, i'm drawn to clojurescript as i can still use node.js, i'm only tangentially interested in the jvm. I love the fact that all the basic plumbing is taken care; core.async, core.match, so no need for _ etc. So the features cljs offers i believe are exciting enough to overcome most initial fears a dev may have; reagent/om are just icing on the cake. However, I think large scale interest from the js community hinges upon cljs-in-cljs; so typical expectations re compilation times/mem usage and npm installation are met. If we get there, i think cljs is superior to anything else out there and a plus point on anyone's C.V.
