Yes, it does make CLJSJS obsolete and the new method is to include Node modules from NPM.
CLJSJS was never the one true way, especially for production. It lacked deduplication of transitive dependencies that were not packed per CLJSJS and of course support for dependencies that where are not included in CLJSJS. It was nice to get started quickly, but in production one compiled its own bundle of js deps e. g. via webpack, and handwritten (or handcopypasted) externs. As a newcomer, you won't have to deal with all that in the future, which is one of the many benefits of this release. Nonetheless this new functionality will probably take an iteration or two until its stable.
