With more than 150 detailed recipes, this cookbook showsexperienced Clojure developers how to solve a variety of programming tasks withthis JVM language. The solutions cover everything from building dynamicwebsites and working with databases to network communication, cloud computing,and advanced testing strategies. And more than 60 of the world’s bestClojurians contributed recipes.
Each recipe includes code that you can use right away, along with a discussionon how and why the solution works, so you can adapt these patterns, approaches,and techniques to situations not specifically covered in this cookbook.
