Key differences between Elm and Clojure

CharacteristicElmClojure
SyntaxElm has a syntax similar to Haskell, with a strong focus on simplicity and readability.Clojure has a Lisp-like syntax, with a focus on immutability and functional programming.
ParadigmElm is a purely functional programming language.Clojure is a functional programming language that also supports imperative and object-oriented programming.
TypingElm has a strong static type system that helps catch errors at compile-time.Clojure is dynamically typed, allowing for more flexibility but potentially leading to runtime errors.
PerformanceElm is designed for high-performance web applications, with a focus on minimizing runtime errors.Clojure is known for its good performance, especially when leveraging the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
Libraries and frameworksElm has a smaller ecosystem compared to Clojure, but it has a strong focus on quality and reliability.Clojure has a large ecosystem with access to a wide range of libraries and frameworks.
Community and supportElm has a small but dedicated community, with active support from the core team.Clojure has a larger community with strong support from both the community and the core team.
Learning curveElm has a relatively low learning curve, especially for developers familiar with functional programming.Clojure has a steeper learning curve, especially for developers new to Lisp-like syntax and functional programming.
