> I do think it is perhaps unfortunate that Clojure is tied so heavily to the JVM, because I actually don't think it gains much from that ecosystem... but it's a product of the time it was first written. When I was doing more Clojure, I loved that it was on the JVM because it meant I got to use every Java library under the sun. There are tons of battle tested Java libraries that didn't have to be rewritten in Clojure, and getting to use them for approximately zero financial and runtime cost was a HUGE benefit of Clojure compared to other niche FP languages. |
