Clojure is tiny in that there are very few special forms (less than 20 according to [0]) and most things are just plain functions. More importantly, it is developed extremely conservatively which means 1) you don’t need to learn the syntax/feature of the month (like eg javascript/python) 2) the code you wrote a decade ago will still work. That said, it does sit on top of Java/JS so you can access those parts easily if you need to. [0]: https://clojure.org/reference/special_forms https://clojure.org/reference/special_forms
