The thing I like about Clojurescript is the ability to escape the node/NPM ecosystem entirely. It's feature, not a bug, that I don't want to interoperate with node/NPM.
- anmonteiro90 9y agoThis functionality is opt-in, so you can still live on your island if you'd like :-)
- swannodette 9y agoI would say you are in a distinct minority here with that viewpoint :) I've been using / working on ClojureScript since the very beginning and the halfway integration with Node and NPM never seemed particularly desirable to me.
- nickbauman 9y agoI hear you, David, and completely understand your point of view. And let me take this moment to say how much your work is loved and admired. I agree I am in the minority. And I also understand why people love a language like JavaScript: they love it so much that they routinely compile it back into JavaScript before running it o_0 ;)
- y2bd 9y agoAs someone looking to get into CLJS, where do I find "native" CLJS libraries in case I wish to avoid using NPM?
- anmonteiro90 9y agoNative CLJS libraries are regular JARs that you add to your classpath. Most people publish them to Clojars[1] (which also has Clojure libs). Maven Central may also have some. [1] http://clojars.org http://clojars.org
- juhoteperi 9y agoClojure Toolbox (https://www.clojure-toolbox.com/ https://www.clojure-toolbox.com/) lists libraries for both Clojure and ClojureScript.
