I am beginner to Clojuresript/Clojure. I am not that impressed by JVM Clojure (it is bloated, slow and laggy) and frankly there are better choices on the JVM - Ex: Kotlin offers more possibilities.

But I do like Clojurescript. However, it needs to wean itself away from the all the Java tooling and not require a JDK. We need a lein/figwheel written in node CLJS. An extension that supports REPL like Lumo and step through debugging within visual studio code. A good Clojurescript book. A good React-based UI component library written in CLJS.
