Curious if any team out there is using either https://github.com/metosin/malli#clj-kondo or https://github.com/metosin/malli#static-type-checking-via-typed-clojure ? What's the status and limitations for serious usage? A lot of people dream of having some sort of IDE-integrated static type system that 'just works' and is fast. Is either of these offerings anywhere close that dream?

I think many people use the clj-kondo part since it's part of the dev/start! method for fn instrumentation. It can help a bit for simple schemas, but unfortunately it breaks everytime you'd use :and or :or or things like that in the schema (although this could be improved). In practice it hasn't caught a lot of errors in my workflow.

I don't know if it's the way our project's set up but I could never get dev/start! to work. I wasn't aware of :and / :or being problematic
