It's unfortunately part of the learning curve.
Being a beginner with clojure myself, I was put off by some of the more arcane error messages.
But compared to 'undefined is not a function' it's about 10 times better ;)
Glad to see this being improved.
Don't get discouraged by this. Even if you never plan to use Clojure in a project, dive in and take a good long gulp from the functional tea of enlightenment. It will make you a better programmer.
My advice for people complaining about docs:
http://clojuredocs.org/ http://clojuredocs.org/
is much much nicer.
The standard docs are very very terse and you'll need to learn the typical abbreviations and idioms.
- kimi 8y agoBTW: for libraries, there is kind-of standard docs being developed: https://cljdoc.xyz/ https://cljdoc.xyz/ - see e.g. https://cljdoc.xyz/d/cli-matic/cli-matic/0.1.13/doc/readme https://cljdoc.xyz/d/cli-matic/cli-matic/0.1.13/doc/readme
- beders 8y agoTo help with Clojure/ClojureScript adoption, I would love to see this, clojure-docs and the official documentation in one place. People give up easily if they can't find decent getting started and docs. It adds to that initial hurdle. Any chance the authors of these initiatives can get together?
