Clojure does make difficult things easy. And it's getting better and better with the rapid evolution of new libraries and middleware.

Given one of the core differences in approach, composibility for Clojure and 'convention over configuration' for RoR - I don't think there will ever be a monolithic RoR equivalent in Clojure. Instead the micro-frameworks that are emerging are finding their niches, and are being designed from the ground up to work with other micro-frameworks. Working in tandem these compositions of micro-frameworks are quickly getting mature and I'm sure will be in the same league as RoR soon enough.

What I like about this is it allows you to handle Clojure a micro-framework or middleware at a time. It's easier to digest this way, at least for me: Ring -> Compojure -> Hiccup - Enlive/Comb/Fleet [x] -> Korma -> Friend, followed by Domina, Enfocus and others on the ClojureScript side.

I forgot to add to [x]: noir, lein-cljsbuild and clojurescript one; and to the ClojureScript side: jayq, fetch, waltz and crate.
