Hi Victor, you could don’t believe me, but I landed on ClojureScript without being a front-end guy. I started writing modern-cljs tutorials while I was teaching it to a couple of my mathematicians. I NEVER developed any serious JS stuff before that moment. I only studied JS many years ago and a THOSE time I found it not to be something I would enjoy to work with. One of the reasons why I fell in love with CLJS is because I could use it without knowing too much about JS.
If I was able to afford it, I think that anybody could do at least the same, you included. my best mimmo On 12 Mar 2014, at 18:28, Mathias Picker <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Victor, > > I've also come to clojurescript without javascript background.
