After trying Clojure(and Luminus) several times over the past year I don't think it would be my go to for things that Rails is tackling. On a side note writing Clojure gave me a little anxiety so I'm trying to hold back on it for now.
After working in this stuff for a while I just use the right tool for the right job. Most of the time Rails is that tool and it allows you to just get stuff done. Sometimes Node is the right tool, or Python.
I think the new Turbolinks stuff is pretty interesting(and useful) although it doesn't help me with forms, and that's the thing I'm usually using React or Angular for these days. Angular may get crap but it's actually really good at forms.
- brodock 11y agoI believe the right balance with turbolinks is a mix of React for interactive animated stuffs, graphs, etc, and turbolinks to render stuff that is better generated server side, or to push json data (and then bind it to your react component)
