I briefly tried Clojure on the server side, but I ended up deciding that Node, despite its immaturity was more comfortable for me. In general, my problems were:
Developed felt sluggish: * Very long boot time - cold boot, including cljs compile but not downloads, compile is over 1min compared to 10sec for similar node boot * Slow REPL cycle (5sec+ per reload) - Using optimization: whitespace. I wasn't able to figure out how to make it work with optimization: none. Compare this to a nearly instant reload time in node Having both Clojure and ClojureScript was confusing: * I'm not very familiar with Clojure and having learn its idioms and libraries of ClojureScript seemed prohibitive. Node is new as well, but given that it's JavaScript, it was more comfortable. So for others, I can see Nashorn would be a good choice, but I think for me and I might guess others coming from the JavaScript world, Node probably makes more sense. -- Note that posts from new members are moderated - please be patient with your first post. --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ClojureScript" group.
