"My entire business is built on Clojure and ClojureScript, and it would not have been possible without these languages."
No company depends any new language to succeed, depends on customers.
- finnjohnsen2 6y agoI would rephrase and ask why he claim his business would not exists without Clojure/ClojureScript :)
- Scarbutt 6y agoYeah, seems like a cultish thing to say.
- jwr 6y agoIt's very simple: it's a solo-founder business. I would not have been able to tackle the complexity of modeling the problem domain, writing server-side code, writing client-side code, and maintaining the whole thing. I would have needed a team, and this SaaS has a growth curve (line, to be precise), which isn't fast enough to get to a team quickly. This particular business really would not be possible without the reduction in incidental complexity that Clojure+ClojureScript brought.
- Tostino 6y agoI feel like this is just being pedantic. obviously business is nothing without its customers, however it's also nothing without something to sell.
- bishalb 6y agoWhich could definitely have been built using other languages had clojure never existed.
