Pro Luminus is flexible
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.
Pro Good documentation
Luminus provides step-by-step documentation on how to accomplish common tasks.
Pro Simple to setup and use
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.
Cons
Con Lacking in UI development
While actually very good and with a very complete and rich feature set to develop and maintain code on the server side, it still doesn't provide any rich framework for building good user interfaces.
