I'm certainly not the author, I'm just desperate to see more people working on something to compete with Elm! I've just never been a fan of Haskell syntax :(
I don't mind the syntax. The difference is that while Elm is a niche language with a small community, Cljs has a very diverse ecosystem on its way to becoming a complete web development platform (or already there!).
I always find it a bit sad when cool technology is snubbed on the basis of syntax... Elm especially, since Evan works so hard at making the language approachable
