Greetings,
I have started a job where the chosen execution environment happens to be Node.js for our microservices. We have a NestJS app (which uses TypeScript) running and its fine. If you squint it looks like a Spring Boot app. Annotations. MVC. All the things. I personally think the JVM is a better platform for creating services, but that isn't on the table right now.

So, can I do this in ClojureScript? I have been reading all the docs for Macchiato and it looks decent. I don't need to turn out web pages though, so can I just leave that stuff out? Are there other frameworks? I have seen an example of wrapping ExpressJS in ClojureScript. Is that what people do?

Are there a lot of server-side ClojureScript implementations out there or do people use Clojure because, well...

Thanks a lot.


Charlie

Charles:

I am a moderator of the ClojureScript Google group, and at least from this end it appeared that you attempted to send the same message to the group about 10 times.  If this was intentional, then please realize that once is typically enough.  People who have not posted to the group before have their messages go through human moderation, which involves waiting until a person looks at and approves your message.

My apologies for sending the previous message to the group, which was intended to go to the sender only.

I do apologize. The page kept saying it could not communicate with the server - so I was never sure the post had completed. I had a feeling it was, but I could not confirm. Mostly because I did not realize it was moderated, so of course the post was not showing up immediately. Good times.
