They are not lisps :)
> What if you need performance
Choose a lisp that gives you performance. Clojure gets you about 80% on the way there, for the rest you can use Common Lisp if you really require performance. I've found that Clojure usually does the trick if you optimize it a bit.
> Or even a community at all
Clojure does have a community, not sure what you mean? There are forums, chats, Q&A sites, blogs, people on Twitter.
> libraries and support?
Plenty of battle-tested libraries with stable APIs, and loads of companies that offer Clojure support (not to mention the great public community that can also help with most if not all questions).
Have you actually used Clojure in any capacity? These points seems to be coming from someone who haven't actually tried to get involved.
- trenchgun 5y agoDo you ever miss static typing?
- capableweb 5y agoI did, in the beginning. But then I learned better ways of achieving the same guarantees, other methodologies to "prove" (not as in "formal proofs") that my program works as it should. Once Clojure.Spec appeared it was a no-brainer to start using it, and now I want Clojure.Spec in all languages, much rather than static typing.
