You are right - right now the apps that a junior dev like me are just simple stuff like webapps, which i have tried before with Clojure (but learning about webapps, Clojure and the libraries out there all at the same time made me abandon my efforts after 2 months). I am thinking i should look read the source code of Luminus and see where that takes me.
