> Our codebase consists of 250k lines of Clojure split evenly between source and test code. It’s one of the largest Clojure codebases in the world.
Aren't there many Clojure projects out there, or is the language generally not used for large projects? I have a JavaScript frontend written in Vue that is 150k+ lines of code, without any tests. Which would be 25k lines of code more than they have, disregarding their tests.
I'm not saying that more code is better, I just found it odd that 250k was considered one of the largest Clojure codebases in the world
At least according to Paul Graham, one of the appealing things about Lisp is the economy of expression. Not many Clojurists would brag about how big their code base is, I think.
