I recently did some research into web frameworks on Github. Here's what
I found:
FRAMEWORK LANG CONTRIBUTORS COMMITS
Luminus Clojure 28 678
Caribou Clojure 2 275
Beego Golang 99 1522
Phoenix Elixir 124 1949
Yesod Haskell 130 3722
Laravel PHP 268 4421
Play Scala 417 6085
Symfony PHP 1130 20914
Rails Ruby 2691 51000
One could conclude from this that the Clojure community isn't that
interested in web development but the last Clojure survey suggests
otherwise. Clojure's library composition approach to everything only
goes so far with large web applications, as Aaron Bedra reminded us in
March last year: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBL59w7fXw4 . Less manpower
means less momentum and more bugs. Furthermore, I have a hunch that
Clojure's poor adoption as indicated by Indeed.com maybe due to this
immaturity in the web framework sphere. Why is it that Elixir, with a
much smaller community and lifespan than Clojure's, has managed to put 4
times as much mindshare into its main web framework when its module
output, as measured by modulecounts.com, is a tiny fraction of Clojure's?
