I'm still considering Datomic, or DataScript at least. I'm sold on concepts, but having hard time using it. Note that I don't have prior DB experience so YMMV.

The state of documentation is a dealbreaker for me. I could not understand how to use Datomic just from docs. It lacked code snippets, examples of different ways to use it.
The ClojureDocs solved this in a beautiful way with crowd-sourced collection of use-cases. ClojureDocs API pages manage to seamlessly present the core principles along with user-contributed annotated code snippets. Learning from examples is most effective way of learning.
