🤔 cljc use cases

how I've made use of Clojure's clojure<>clojurescript code sharing functionality in practice (ie. cljc files):
- library-like things, that have use in both clj and cljs
  - (ex. a bespoke sorting function, combinatorics, etc.)
- library-like things, that paper over minor differences between clj and cljs
  - (ex. generating a random uuid, some math stuff)
- for app-like projects, sharing some code between front and back-end
  - particularly "domain" related stuff, like schemas, some functions
- for app-like projects, where we've taken a "feature-based" code organization approach, where we co-colocate clj and cljs functions that are related to the same feature, but they each run in their respective run-time (front- vs back- )
  - ex: in Braid
- code-generation for cljs
  - ie. baking in data into a cljs file, via macros (ex. icons, public config variables, EDN data)
  - (less related to cljc, more just how macros work with cljs)
