So, if I get it right, from your comment: 1) You like EDN and would like it to become popular. 2) You would like Clojure to occupy a similar place RAD and 4th gen languages tried to occupy decades back. Not saying this in pejorative way, since I'm sure a big chunk of HN has come to appreciate VB a lot more now that is not such a big thing as it was in the past. -- Regarding 1), I feel like it is a little bit hard that EDN will become popular, mostly since it goes so much hand in hand with Clojure and its APIs. Plus, in order to talk EDN to browsers, it makes sense to pack it in JSON and then use some clever encoding (like [transit] does). One of the tricky parts of using ClojureScript is understanding the handling of data coming from APIs.. I'm only now starting to get into this but I think is not trivial, and this is why projects like [

Hello, this is a really interesting comment although I disagree with some of its points. I recently had my first full time Clj/Cljs job and it made me realise some points: - although figwheel is an awesome build tool, shadow-cljs with its near seamless npm integration is imo the most powerful Cljs build tool atm [1]. - cljs-bean[2], recently released by Mike Fikes is a really cool tool: it makes working with POJO really easy without too much performance penalty - the new react hook API is imo a game changer for CLJS frontend frameworks: the decision to overload native function for componenents instead of using ES6 classes makes working with react componenent much more easier, imo this new API suits CLJS perfectly: hooks are just js functions that are called in the same order at each render pass. - clojure.spec and clojure.spec.gen in a RE
