Clojure: I learn to use Leiningen or boot (in my case only Leiningen), and then 
I learn Clojure.  Did that.  Love it.  Wrote moderately significant 
application.  Very comfortable with Clojure.

Clojurescript: Leiningen or boot, but either way it's more complicated.  OK.  
Want to get started.  Have gotten started.  Several times.  Made toy examples.  
Cool.  But ... still ... puzzled every time I come back to it.  Is my setup a 
good one?  Where to start over?  Wiki has a total of twelve Leiningen or boot 
templates.  Each with idiosyncrasies about what has to be installed, how to 
configure.  (I downloaded this easy template for newbies.  Oops have to install 
X.  Which requires Y ....)

These are not complaints--not at all.  I understand that the way in which 
Clojurescript depends on Clojure requires a few more hoops.  I understand that 
many people want to use Clojurescript with existing server and Javascript 
libraries; it makes sense to have various options for different kinds of 
newbies.

I'm just wondering whether it could be useful if someone were willing to 
provide a paragraph or a page of overview advice on the wiki about the options 
for someone starting out.  "If you want to do this, use that template, but not 
if you don't care about blah blah."  etc.  This is information that can help a 
newbie go from the Quick Start page to navigating the Home page of the Wiki.  
(Or maybe I just haven't found it yet.)  Not sure how easy this is to do.  By 
their nature, advice flow charts probably always have exceptions or missing 
information.

Thanks!
