My answer to: https://www.reddit.com/r/Clojure/comments/pcwypb/us_engineers_love_to_say_the_right_tool_for_the/ which asked to know when and at what is Clojure "the right tool for the job"?

My take is that in general, the right tool for the job actually doesn't matter that much when it comes to programming language.

There are only a few cases where the options of tools that can do a sufficiently good job at the task become limited.

That's why they are called: General-purpose programming languages, because they can be used generally for most use cases without issues.

Let's look at some of the dimensions that make a difference and what I think of Clojure for them:

(defvar mu4e-pre-extensions
  '(
    mu4e
    ))

(defun mu4e/init-mu4e ()
  (use-package mu4e
    :init
    (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/mu4e")
