Should you bother with Clojure?

Question

Java

Does anyone have experience developing in this language? How is he to you? Is it worth studying and in what area is it better to apply (web, client applications, etc.)?

Answer 1

They say it's worth learning lisp anyway :)

Answer 2

Costs. At least because of ClojureScript

Answer 3

Picked a little in order to get acquainted, deployed a java application on GAE.
In general, interesting. I don't regret it.
Again, there are a lot of goodies in conjunction with Emax.
Do I recommend? As a hobby, if you are interested in Lisp, for the purpose of familiarization - of course.
For commercial purposes? It's hard to say, really. As the first and only language seems risky.

Answer 4

Scala is more promising for real projects, take the same Lift.
And SICP is a “classic”, it will be useful for everyone. Just Clojure, you can use for training.
