Hi! We're the guys at Freshcode and we're passionate about Clojure development. We are currently preparing a talk for :clojureD and we need your participation in this survey to complete it. Hope for your support ❤️ :clj:

Where do you use Clojure? *

at work

for my hobby projects

both options

How long have you been using Clojure? *

less than a year

a year

2 years

3 years

4 years

5 years and more

Statistics show that there are many cases when Clojure is chosen to develop hobby projects "for fun" or "just to try". What other languages would you like to work with (or have already worked with) for the same reason? *

Scala

Elixir

Haskell

Elm

Rust

I don't want to try new languages

Other:

Required

Do you use Datomic? *

Yes, but rarely

Yes, on a daily basis

Not yet

No and I’m not going to

I've never heard about it

How often do you write macros? *

I'm trying not to write it. Use functions and data

Periodically I use it for simple things: logging, debugging, profiling

I create eDSL and write part of the project with them

What tasks do you create eDSL for? *

When did you first encounter S-expressions? *

at university

at my hobby project on non-Clojure Lisp (Common lisp, Scheme, etc)

at my Clojure hobby project

at my Clojure commercial (production) project

Please rank each item below from 5 (most difficult to learn) to 1 (least difficult to learn); option "0" - you had no problems with learning *

immutable data structures, no mutable variables

first class function/high order functions

S-expressions, syntax

difficulties with setting up IDE and/or "first run" to get first results

macroses, understanding "compile time vs runtime"

Clojure model of handling multi-threading: STM/atoms

switch from imperative to functional paradigm. To start doing things in a very different way

ways of API design: data-driven, HOF, macros-heavy APIs

finding common used libraries, understanding Clojure dev stack

How long did it take you from creating a hobby project to moving on to a commercial project? *

up to 6 months

a year

2 years

3 years and more

I am not planning to use Clojure at work

I started working with Clojure on a commercial project (just skipped the hobby project stage)

How did you know that you would stay with Clojure for the rest of your life?
