Show Notes: 🏕️ Join the Clojure Camp discord! https://discord.gg/V3ptswbabN ✈️ https://2024.clojure-conj.org/ - Snag your tickets soon! 🙏🏼 We’d like to give a special gratitude shoutout to the following folks: Ramkissoon and Jenny Roopnarine Alex Miller Daniel Glouser Geo Grigoryan - ⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-KOJyoLWrg⁠ All the fine folks at Clojurist’s Together + 🧟‍♂️ The OG clojure campers “zombietrainers/alphalearners”. We’re so proud of you! Wendy Randolph Recia Roopnarine Tommy Brumley Austin Meier aka KingBunz Niki aka _nixtwix 🤡 First ever “Clouncil” Episode - “The Best and Worst Ways to Learn Clojure” https://youtu.be/2WsEy1hl5kE Summary Origin stories, personal values, and surprising hobbies! Raf shares his journey from Kuwait to Canada and his passion for craftsmanship and pro-social behavior. Recia talks about her background in chemical engineering and thanks her parents for their sacrifice and hard work that inspired her top values of perseverance and compassion. Next thing ya know we’re discussing generational trauma and the potential benefits of suffering as a means of personal development (buddhism seems to be a theme this season huh?). Surprisingly, Recia's hobbies include making yogurt and baking bread from scratch, while (not so surprisingly) Raf enjoys playing role-playing games and DnD. Clojure Camp is a community-driven initiative that aims to help people learn and master the Clojure programming language. The founders, Jordan and Raf, along with one of their first learners now turned full time clojure dev Recia, share their personal experiences and motivations for getting involved. They discuss the evolution of Clojure Camp from a bi-weekly Zoom meeting to a more structured and supportive learning community on Discord. The founders emphasize the importance of accountability, emotional support, and shared learning in the learning process. They also highlight the positive impact Clojure Camp has had on their lives and the success stories of learners who have found programming jobs through the community.

Calva is distilled from CIDER both in spirit (trying to recreate the CIDER experience in VS Code) and de facto, using much of the same tech.The latter means that, like with CIDER, Calva's Interactive Programming support is made from the produce of The Orchard by proxy of cider-nrepl , a collection of powerful nREPL ops.Calva also has a strong static suite, much thanks to clojure-lsp and clj-kondo Many people are enjoying Calva together with Portal or Reveal both of which are very strong and delightful tools for working with, and visualizing, result structures.Calva treats beginners, wether with Calva or Clojure, with an interactive Getting Started REPL experience.The getting started experience includes an interactive Clojure guide, which is hosted as one of the drams in the Dram repository. The goal is to bring the guides to any Clojure editor.The guide is also available in Zero-install browser version: Get Started with Clojure It is easy to Hack on Calva . PRs welcome! Reach out to the Calva Team and we will be happy to assist.The Calva Team: Peter Strömberg Brandon Ringe Cora Sutton Lukas Domagala If you want to sponsor Calva with donations, please see Sponsoring Calva…
