I'm really greatful for clojure to exist. It exposed me to a lot of concepts and gave me a new perspective to think about problems, which in turn helped me to grow tremendously as a developer.
The emphasis to work directly with the data is quite unique to clojure (as I'm aware of, please proof me wrong on this) which allows me to just dive in and think about the problem I want to solve instead of fighting my language or framework.
The interactivity of the environment paired with immutability results in an instant feedback loop which let me get into mental flow really fast, which is a joy.
