Luminus vs Beego

Luminus allows using ClojureScript for client-side development. This allows sharing things like validation logic between the server and the client.

Luminus is built on a stack of composable libraries that can be easily swapped to make the application fit the needs of the user. The applications are generated using Leiningen templates and can be initialized with a specific set of features, such as database connections, needed for a specific application.

Luminus provides step-by-step documentation on how to accomplish common tasks.

Luminus is small and flexible. It's geared towards interactive development using the REPL. You can see your changes as you're working without having to restart the application.

Beego is a "batteries included" web framework, which means that a lot of features already come out of the box. This way you don't have to spend time and find third-party libraries to integrate to the framework for most of the tasks you need to complete.

Beego has a built-in tool which watches the code for changes. This tool (called bee tool) can be configured to run any task once the code changes. It can run tests or reload and rebuild the whole project.

Beego's eloquent ORM is a simple and fast Object-Relational Mapping which helps with organizing the application's database. Beego examples and documentation all use the beego ORM. No need to learn to use and integrate another ORMs API.
