~~Simple~~ JavaScript is eating the world. ClojureScript compiles to JS.

I'm convinced that Clojure will be the lisp-uber-language.

EDIT: I shouldn't have said "simple"; nothing ever is. I was being arrogant.

Do you get Javascript error messages in Clojure? That is one of the drawbacks to transpiled languages I have used before.

The best one I’ve used so far is Kotlin, which is a pleasure to use in comparison to Java, but this might be because I used it in an IDE written by the language designers themselves.
