Personally this is a hidden trick I use.

Ask AI to build something. By default it will use python. Sometimes js or typescript.

Ask then to do the same thing in Clojure. The result is generally an order of magnitude better. Shorter, easier to read for both humans and llm. Easier to adapt to changes.



Not to mention that changes are easier to review, because there is less of them. Same semantic diff for JavaScript and Clojure looks vastly different, and I'll favor to review Clojure changes any day of the week.


Autochrome [0] make reviewing Clojure diffs from AI really easy.
