Using anything other than Javascript in the browser is absolute madness, and I'm a python dude.
Learning the limitations, workarounds and build processes for using anything other than Javascript is going to take longer than just learning Javascript. I get it for moving large C++ applications onto the web, I get it for occasional fiddly bits and pieces like maybe a codec. But new web front end code in anything other than Javascript? Nah.

And I am no lisp enthusiast, just find the abstraction very minimal there, plus good interop with the host language.
