An opinionated list of excellent Clojure learning materials

These resources (articles, books, and videos) are useful when you're starting to learn the language, or when you're learning a specific part of the language. This an opinionated list, no doubt. I've compiled this list from writing and teaching Clojure over the last 10 years.

Rich Already Answered That!

A list of commonly asked questions, design decisions, reasons why Clojure is the way it is as they were answered directly by Rich (even when from many years ago, those answers are pretty much valid today!). Feel free to point friends and colleagues here next time they ask (again). Answers are pasted verbatim (I've made small adjustments for readibility, but never changed a sentence) from mailing lists, articles, chats.

How to use:

• The link in the table of content jumps at the copy of the answer on this page.
• The link on the answer itself points back at the original post.

SSL is an important security and privacy feature for all websites. Its details are outlined in this wikipedia [article] ("http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Sockets_Layer"). At Scibler, we use SSL certificates, encrypting all traffic to and fro from our servers. SSL is a public-key based asymmetric encryption scheme for symmetric key exchange. Symmetric keys are used for payload encryption. On our servers, we use embedded jetty (ring jetty adapter), with the clojure [ring] (https://github.com/ring-clojure) library to handle the http specific functionality.

This is a tutorial about installing SSL certificates on jetty webservers. SSL certificates are X.509 certificates that can be self-signed (authorized by Scibler) or can be signed by trusted third-parties. Trusted third-party certificates are the ones that a Internet user and browsers trust the most. Trusted third-party certification authorities issue certificates per domain and charge a nominal yearly fee.

Update May 2017

Eric Bidelman has documented some of the common workflows possible with headless Chrome over in https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/04/headless-chrome.

Update

If you're looking at this in 2016 and beyond, I strongly recommend investigating real headless Chrome: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/lkgr/headless/README.md

Windows and Mac users might find using Justin Ribeiro's Docker setup useful here while full support for these platforms is being worked out.
