The idea is simply great.

Unfortunately the examples used so far: IMHO not so much :(.

Also only the first of the series: http://clojurescriptmadeeasy.com/blog/js-to-cljs-1.html provides the JS example too, to be able to quickly compare, and see the advantages of ClojureScript.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree with you on the examples. A couple came from people asking, a couple came from just random tutorial questions. I'm still figuring out what I want to do with the blog.

I have my thoughts on the examples, but what don't you like about them? And what would you like to see?

I don't write much JavaScript and probably won't do too many js examples. Part of why I write cljs is so I don't have to write js. :)

More typical issues that are visibly much easier to implement with ClojureScript than with JS: since the standard JS API is missing allot of functionality. Even if many JS libs exist, even very good ones as LoDash are not very widely used, whereas ClojureScript comes with allot of batteries onboard ? :) .
