- collyw 11y agoMany developers are capable of learning a second language. If they are stupid about hiring they will insist on experience with ClojusreScript. And lets face it most companies will do that.
- reustle 11y agoReally? Good luck convincing good JS developers that they should actually be doing Clojurescript at work instead. Maybe you'll have better luck at a local frequent clojurescript meetups (probably doesn't exist).
- gknoy 11y agoI work near a team of people I'd consider "good JS developers". If I were to just go over to their workspace and say, "We should totally use Clojurescript", they'd look at me with a mixture of "LOL, Emacs" or "This guy's a loon". However, if I were to give a presentation talking about how I took X and rewrote it as Y in Clojurescript, and the benefits of doing that -- time, ease of debugging, code readability -- I'm pretty sure that they would not dismiss it immediately. (Of course, this would require me to actually learn Clojurescript well enough to rewrite my JS things in it. ;))
