I like the idea of using “fat” events as a means of data integration between systems. Calling them RESTful events is a good term as I’ve pitched in much the same fashion. Every time a system responds to a create/update/execute req

You beat me to it by seconds! Lots over overlap here with Clojure’s Extensible Data Notation (edn).

Over the years javascript has really evolved into a multi-paradigm kitchen-sink of a language, and because of its nature and evolution, there really isn’t such a thing as “idiomatic” JavaScript or widely agreed upon approaches to architecti

In Mark’s defence, our views on software development can change over time as we learn and grow. Mark, for example, is now primarily a functional programmer and makes good use of F#’s type system: https://blog.ploeh.dk/2015&#

I’m doing a lot of exploratory work with BPMN right now. I think if your business is largely transactional (think Stripe), there is a lot of value to be had by framing your development as “business process automation”. The term (and BPMN) h

I think claims of improved productivity when switching to Clojure have a lot to do with the person making those claims and where they are coming from. I see Clojure as almost sub-set of JavaScript bundled with a great standard library akin

Same here. I’m slowly writing some wrapper libraries for server side ClojureScript (starting with Express.js). It’s a fun side project for now, but hopefully I can use it to convince some of my JavaScript loving co-workers to give Clojure a

There is nothing that says ClojureScript can’t be used on the server side and integrate with the platforms you mentioned. It’s likely just a matter of writing wrapper libraries similar to what was done for many Java libraries. The hard part

Immutability is baked into ClojureScript, so there’s no need for libraries like Immutable.js. Likewise, ClojureScript is all about manipulating a small set of code data structures (lists, vectors, maps, etc), and as such it has an extensive

Function definitions and vars are a form of state that can accumulate in a REPL session. Its not just atoms. This can lead to issues where you decide to refactor and rename a var (Clojure is all about concise and expressive names, so its no

Code generation and strong contracts are good (and C#/Java developers have been doing this forever with SOAP/XML), but they do place some serious restrictions on flexibility. I’m not sure how gRPC handles this, but adding an addit
