So you're using CLJS for the backend? Also, can you explain what you mean with the following: "with Clojure/Clojurescript, I was able to make something I could only dream about before." What does CLJS enable you to do that you can't do with JS / TS? PS. I'm in a somewhat similar boat, i.e. not a great programmer (not my job anyway) - more of a prototyper - hence my interest in your experience with CLJS.

No. I am using Clojurescript for frontend. What I meant was that my strong point is server side programming and I lack experience and time to master all the nooks and cranies of programming in Javascript. I built a voice broadcasting service as a side project in Clojure, built on top of freeswitch and Datomic. From low level library (freeswitch-clj) to API server and frontend SPA, all in Clojure(script). The whole system is approximately 32K SLOC, written over 3.5 years. I have tried similar projects with other stack, mainly with PHP+js and python+js. None went as far as this one. Although we are yet to make a profit, I am very satisfied with the whole development process and subsequent maintainability offered by Clojure. In frontend, we are using reframe + antd react UI library, along with other necessary glue libraries from npm.
