Yes, you're definitely right that measuring Cursive use is not a good proxy
for the community as a whole since that also reflects the state of Cursive
itself.
The download metric would be interesting if we could compare, say, the last
3-4 months - I don't know if Clojars stores timestamps with
About 7,000 *Clojure* repos on github vs about 325,000 for Javascript.
Meaning JS is almost 50X more popular on Github. Now if you narrow it down
to ClojureScript we're probably talking about 1000 repos (wild guess) which
means JS is 325X more popular on Github.
The more scary number is the 2
I'm curious about the approximate size of the clojurescript community, and its
current trajectory numerically speaking.
So, absolute numbers like: how many active cljs programmers are there? And/or
relative numbers like: growing at X%.
I'm wondering where useful numbers might live.
