squint

platform for presentations in clojurescript, Whimsical - their chart drawing boards, and you don't even have to imagine - that shit would need to squeeze out every drop of a cycle for canvas/WebGL and DOM updates. Most web app bottlenecks are architectural - bad algorithms, inefficient data structures, unnecessary re-renders, and Clojurescript is just amazing to deal with these kinds of problems. > bindings to the raw JS and DOM APIs You're saying nonsense. Clojurescript directly can call any javascript function and whatever APIs. Please at least google, or ask an LLM before blurting out nonsense like this. I don't know what emotional level of insecurities you're dealing with, but I advise you to try out things instead of prematurely reaching the level of "I hate this" without even understanding what you're actually hating. It's not that hard. These days you don't even have to learn all the intricacies of compiling it, you can use Squint - the light-weight dialect of Clojurescript. It's as easy as using a regular script tag. https://github.com/squint-cljs/squint Or don't use it, who cares? Stay in your mental FUD castle, letting theoretical constraints become real ones by never testing their boundaries. I have used Clojurescript, I liked it and will use it again - I have seen with my own eyes how it actually works much better than any other alternatives I have tried so far - in practical web apps that I shipped to production. I'm not married to it - it simply makes sense. For many practical reasons it does. Whenever it stops making sense and I find a better alternative, I will switch without hesitation. For now, it just works for me.
