You can get help from Clojure Slack or from Clojure Zulip https://clojurians.zulipchat.com.
4.2 IDE
You need to have a good IDE for CLojure. Emacs https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ is good, and you have an extension called Cider https://cider.mx/ that helps you to work with Clojure.
If you are okay about getting tracked VSCode https://code.visualstudio.com/, along with Calva https://calva.io/ can be used. One could also use VSCodium https://vscodium.com/ in case you do not want the evils of Microsoft on your machine, Calva works perfectly well with VSCodium.
