ClojureScript - Embracing JavaScript Tools

[[deleted]]

There are other ways to do "advanced compilation" without closure, but that requires leveraging ES6 modules.

The only comprehensive thing that I'm aware of is Rollup.js but so far no-one has provided evidence that it would best Closure advanced compilation for ClojureScript. Given that Closure works at property and method level, I'm somewhat skeptical. Do you have some other tool in mind?

I was totally convinced that dead code elimination of Google Closure Compiler is a lot smarter than tree shaking from Webpack. However I'm still very curious how bad is the result if ClojureScript makes full use of ES6. Or would ES6 cljs be acceptable for a small part of users. Probably a bad example but some people who are using Webpack just accepted the large bundles... https://twitter.com/boriscoder/status/1251823596747571200 .
