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.

• 🔴 Mandatory (for both beginners and intermediates)
• 🟩 For beginners
• 🟨 For intermediates

Installing tmux-256color for macOS

• macOS 10.15.5
• tmux 3.1b

macOS has ncurses version 5.7 which does not ship the terminfo description for tmux. There're two ways that can help you to solve this problem.

The Fast Blazing Solution

Instead of tmux-256color, use screen-256color which comes with system. Place this command into ~/.tmux.conf or ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf(for version 3.1 and later):

create table if not exists migrations (
  key text CONSTRAINT pkey PRIMARY KEY
);

create or replace function idempotent(migration_name text,code text) returns void as $$
begin
if exists (select key from migrations where key=migration_name) then
  raise notice 'Migration already applied: %', migration_name;
else
  raise notice 'Running migration: %', migration_name;

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.

;; we can make maps using the special literal form:

{:a 100
 :b 200}

(class {:a 100 :b 200})
