Clojure also clicked with me too, and I also dislike huge frameworks.
There's a trade off there though, rails gives you so much, you almost forget what the problems are with slapping different libraries together.
Definitely room for a "blessed" path to web dev in clojure.
- serpix 9y agore-frame is the uncrowned king of web dev at the moment, there is nothing like it out there
- gleenn 9y agoThat's only for the front end though. Lots of people use Compojure which is essentially Sinatra if you're coming from Ruby. Luminus is a far more complete solution that feels like Rails. After I cut my teeth enough times starting from nothing, Luminus unfortunately feels a little clunky because you have to figure out how it's all glued together.
