Yes. It&#x27;s also a problem when you&#x27;re deploying to, for example, EC2 instances that are too limited -- say a t2.tiny for proof-of-concept work -- to compile the Python lxml library.<p>That&#x27;s after you figure out which 50 different *-dev libs you have to sudo apt-get install, in a tedious process of trial-and-error, .&#x2F;configure, make, and error.<p>With Clojure this is a non-issue. lein will download what dependencies you need. And they&#x27;re all already compiled into .jars. This is a benefit of the JVM infrastructure, but we&#x27;re comparing Python here, so.<p>And of course you can upgrade the EC2 instance, but an annoying and time-consuming process, since you&#x27;re not in control of the AWS account yourself, and the entire issue doesn&#x27;t exist if you&#x27;re using Clojure.
