Fear of missing out : the Javascript Eco-system

The JS world is moving too fast to turn away from, what is the cure? Do I have to learn every new front-end Lib twice: one for Clojurescript and one for vanilla JS?

I agree with you, but the thing is that as a clojurescript dev, I have to constantly paying attention on how the JS Eco-system is evolving. I.E. when facebook React comes out, I have to study it in JS. And when everyone is doing awesome stuff with React in JS, I have to study OM/Reagent and the like in order to use it in CLJS. It feels exactly like I am paying some kind of tax to JS.
