Scary, any newbie will read this and run away.
Is passing through the complexity, pain and all the caveats one can encounter from this really worth it for using Clojurescript? Serious question, now that with have ES6+ and today babel/webpack are solid tools.
I mean from all the modules mess, I didn't get what's the correct way to do javascript interop right now.
- swannodette 9y agoI fail to see how Closure Complier is any more complicated, more painful, and has any more caveats than Babel/Webpack. With Closure Compiler at 8 years old and building some of the most sophisticated JS properties on the web (GDocs anyone?) it seems pretty "solid" to me. Perhaps it not clear from the post but that's a big part of why this works, we're not doing the heavy lifting.
- Scarbutt 9y agoIts not about closure, is all the Clojurescript interop issues/gotchas, what's the correct way to do interop today in Clojurescript?
- swannodette 9y agoNothing has changed about ClojureScript interop in 6 years so I don't really know what you're getting at. We believe ClojureScript interop is pretty good and our users pretty consistently agree.
- prodtorok 9y agoAmazing you consider an unstable, undecided, and hectic JavaScript world (language, 3rd party libraries, many competing tools, etc.) against the sanity of a singular language that has been stable and ahead of game since it's creation.
