It seems like a lot of the anti-Clojure sentiment boils down to 1) lack of static typing, 2) poor IDE support.
I'm wondering, though, doesn't the same apply to Ruby, Python, and Node projects?
I've over-hauled 80k line Python projects, and the "lack of typing" there seemed to apply as well.
Why don't Ruby, Python, and Node projects suffer from the same critique? Genuinely curious...
- fulafel 4y agoThey do get the same themed critique from static language proponents, even more so since JS/Python don't have culture of using schema systems (ala spec and malli). But of course dynamic languages have a lot of upsides as well, it's just a tradeoff.
