> probably the next logical step but maybe could be highlighted better
It's definitely not a "next logical step". A next logical step is "create, test, and deploy a clojure program". For some reason these important topics are given a total of maybe 5 paragraphs inside a section on CLI tools?

"A lot is there" is a total of two paragraphs on writing a program outside of REPL, a total of two paragraphs not even on testing but on how to include a test directory. And that's it.
As a beginner I wouldn't even know where to look for this (Google is often not enough).
Clojurescript is slightly better in this regard. At least after the quick start guide I have some understanding on what goes there.
I may open an issue if I don't forget tomorrow :D
