The Clojure community is small and has a different set of values and expectations. I would consider the possibility that you’re framing your question in a way that doesn’t resonate very clearly with people who might have an opinion. If I understand it correctly, you’re asking “should I query a GraphQL backend directly or via a framework?” Since the cost of experimentation in this language is so low, most people will be thinking “why don’t you just try both approaches?” If you can’t find a framework that does it, chances are it’s so easy to do in Clojure/ClojureScript that nobody bothers to put an abstraction there. What happens when you make a GraphQL query yourself? If it’s super easy you may elect to forego any frameworks even if they exist! Another community idiom is that our programs are collections of small, composable functions. When written this way, the cost of making a framework choice that turns out to be suboptimal is very low. In writing Clojure I’m generally much less anxious about upfront framework decisions compared to other languages - I’m willing and able to change quite fundamental components if things aren’t working out. This is another reason questions like “which thing does everyone choose for this?” are often answered with “pick the one that works for you”.
