I dunno, if you can slog through the Python ecosystem then the JVM is starting to look not so bad. Plus with Clojure you don't need to deal with the headache and heartache that is Maven.
- KingMob 7mo agoI think that's true for only a limited subset of programs, though. The Clojure lib ecosystem is nowhere near the size of the broader Java ecosystem, so you frequently end up pulling Maven deps to plug holes anyway.
- pjmlp 7mo agoThat is the goal of a polyglot runtime, and why Clojure was designed to be a hosted language that embraces the platform, unlike others that make their tiny island.
- KingMob 6mo agoUhhh, yes, but I was trying to convey to the parent that most real-world Clojure programs won't isolate you from Maven.
