Not "cool" per se, but here's something that works :) (require '[goog.dom :as dom]) (def body (aget (dom/getElementsByTagNameAndClass "body") 0)) (defn elem-factory [tag text] (let [elem (dom/createElement tag)]

The Celadon Cedar stack has "undocumented" support for leiningen projects (Clojure). I'm not sure about anything else though... That being said, a big selling point of the new architecture is that they should be able to add new languages/fr

Out of curiosity, was this inspired by my service? http://iwbyp.chris-granger.com/

Can you give me an example of what that would look like? Or a description of the flow you'd want to achieve?

I did originally, but I wanted more control on how middleware gets wrapped around the app, as well as the ability to have dev and production "modes". Each of these adjusts what middleware goes into the stack and how it reacts.

I honestly never really saw the appeal in those... There's a link to the source there though, so that's roughly equivalent :)

Zak's characterization is basically correct. Noir isn't really a replacement for those things, more of an abstraction over them. It was born out of seeing how a real web-app evolved and what was missing from the ring/compojure/hiccup stack

I agree that it depends pretty heavily on who is doing your HTML. That being said, you can just not use the defpartial stuff and instead include Enlive to use with Noir just as well. There are purposefully no constraints on what you use to

Absolutely! I don't claim to be an encryption expert, by any means. :)

An oversight on my part :) Luckily, that is an exceptionally easy thing to fix. Edit: and now it is :D

Given that the point of this is to have fun and also tease out people worth hiring, having ambiguity in the problems is a good thing I think. Rarely is a real technical problem so clearly and obviously defined. So requiring a bit of thoug

I can't comment on Scala, but I think Clojure is starting to get to the point where you can learn just Clojure and not have to think about Java until much later. At some point you'll assuredly interact with Java some, but there are a ton of

Cool project! I looked over your code very briefly and noticed you don't tend to use destructuring very much. It was something that took me a while to get used to too, but it turns out to be very useful and makes the code much smaller. Take

I don't, actually. I left 6 months ago. :)

srsly.

That's fair and that's not my intent. Honesty is a fickle friend. :) I'll give it a quick update.

You make some fair, though invalid, assumptions. 1) It's true, I cannot magically produce an entire photo-editing app in two weeks, but this makes the assumption that I won't be very frank with what I will deliver. It also makes the assumpt

Yes, my goal with using Clojure is 3 fold: 1) Selfish - I really like Clojure 2) I hope more people will see Clojure as a viable language to develop websites in 3) It's obscure enough that most people won't try and turn this into production

I actually think the timeframe works out perfectly. With two weeks you can have something complete enough to watch people use (or not) what you intend to build a business out of. At the end of the day, it's hard to learn much until you see

I would be happy to!

Should that happen, I'll consider it a good thing :) I'm not entirely convinced it will, but we'll see. I would schedule projects out if it became necessary.

Haha, I guess I am unusually qualified to talk about those different domains. It's actually kind of funny - when I was interviewing with MSFT I begged and pleaded to get on the ASP.NET MVC team. I was previously a lead web developer and wro
