  Honestly, I think it's more approachable than Js tooling for somebody who's not familiar with either. You can have a working ClojureScript project up and running in literally 1 step, and only have to install 2 things to do that: Install OpenJDK: http://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu/ http://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu/ Install Leiningen: http://leiningen.org/ http://leiningen.org/ Create a new project and run it: lein new reagent myapp cd myapp lein figwheel Once figwheel starts, you can edit src/cljs/myapp/core.cljs and any changes you make will be reflected live in the browser without having to reload the page. Now consider what you'd need to setup to get the same thing with Js/React. I think the problem is that a lot of people are already familiar with Js and tooling around it, so integrating more tools piecemeal doesn't feel as hard as diving into a whole new ecosystem.
