I do love it. I've spent enough time with it to build a couple of toy web services and found it great.
Only issue was trying to learn emacs so I could use paredit. Later I gave that up and used something with vim.
It's probably the number one language I would like to spend time with.
Also, I'm usually not much for these kind of exercises, but this helped me a lot with the syntax: https://www.4clojure.com/ https://www.4clojure.com/
- binary132 12y agoI got a lot out of Clojure koans, myself. Rich Hickey's talks are also phenomenal. I'm itching to take a crack at designing a service around Datomic. Emacs Live is a pretty legit pre-baked environment for use with Clojure, and pretty sexy to boot, decent themes (but needs a Solarized one.) It's also preconfigured to play nice with lein via CIDER nrepl for that "live hacking" experience. There are still a few tricks, and it's a little heavy, but it's quite good for a packaged toolkit. I definitely feel the advantages over Vim, for Clojure at least. Sadly, I too find myself unable to set aside the time I'd like to for Clojure. Again, really enjoyed the article!
