I rarely need to directly interact with Java as a Clojure developer. It of course helps to know the host platform but I don’t think it’s a requirement for getting started with the language.
If it is a dealbreaker you can always stick to ClojureScript, but then you need to know the ins and outs of JavaScript.
- hellofunk 9y agoUnderstanding JavaScript is really only necessary if you want to use JavaScript libraries. It still amazes me that the same code can be used on the JVM and in a JavaScript environment most of the time without really needing to understand the details of either platform.
