    Maybe https://github.com/cgrand/xforms The for transducer might help, just as the for comprehension helps unpack and map/filter nested stuff.

    cgrand/xforms is a very useful hidden gem, if you like transducers/eager evaluation/solving map-vals without meander/specter.

    * It's fast enough for 99% of apps out of the box. It's fast enough for 99.99% of the apps with minimal tuning.

    * Yes, if your project is very big and macro heavy, it can take some time, but startup times have improved. In any case, I BARELY need to restart my development JVM. I have one currently running that I haven't restarted for 1 week+.

    * Depending on what's your cup of tea, there's emacs/CIDER or IntelliJ/Cursive. They both work well. IntelliJ/Cursive is an excellent IDE combination. I use it every day.

    * Java interop is very straightforward, not sure what you mean. Sure your code might not be all pure anymore, but that's the price for solving actual problems.

    * Good java libraries have wrappers. A ton of original Clojure libraries as well. https://github.com/cgrand/xforms for example allows you to easily do things that I can't even imagine doing in an imperative language.

    * Static vs dynamic typing: don't want to get into that.

    * "Clojurescript isn't the same language". I use both Clojure and ClojureScript every day and as far as Clojure-only code is concerned, it works in both languages 99.99% of the time. One case you can encounter issues is if you do something host-specific, like dealing with numbers. That's by design. Clojure embraces each host, does not try to reinvent it. When you just use pure Clojure data structure manipulation, it works the same across both languages and works like magic.

    However, we had some issues with encoding Elixir/BEAM VM terms to EDN and, in general, the performance of the format - so the Transit/JSON would be an improvement as apart from being compatible with regular JSON and essentially more performant it also has a more precise types conversion.

    Clojure in the backend has relatively seamless data interchange with ClojureScript in the frontend through transit, which is a very popular format and library for setting up data serialisation.
