ClojureScript and the deprecation of Google Closure Library

Fri, 12 Jan 2024 16:33:30 +0000

Google announced recently that they will be sunsetting the Closure Library (not Closure itself).

Does this impact ClojureScript in any meaningful way?

Thanks!

Are there plans for official docs (rationale and guide) on datafy / nav?

Sat, 11 Sep 2021 10:26:57 +0000

If Clojure is to become (even) more data oriented, these are powerful tools to achieve that goal. The community needs support to encourage adoption.

The current state of documentation for datafy and nav is not sufficient IMHO to encourage independent learning on a broad scale.

There is no canonical source of such documentation in the community despite some valiant efforts (eg @SeanCorfield who has a great blog post and is an active proponent).

Examples are difficult to find around the internet ... here's a good one from a Slack recommendation by @Frederick on there.

We know that there are problems with Slack since we cannot easily search history so keeping it here might help people find it in the meantime.

It would be good to have a rationale explaining the problem it is solving, the general approach and some specifics on the design.

Likewise a guide on how it should be used with a worked example and some hints and tips on how to approach implementations.

I know it's marked as alpha but this has not prevented docs on other aspects of the language.

How to display better errors in clojure stacktraces? is this planned to be attacked on a new clojure version?

Clojure stacktraces are pretty cryptic and hard to follow, is there a library to display better errors or format the stacktraces?

Any plans for core.async with Project Loom?

I was wondering if there are any plans to revamp/rewrite core.async now that Project Loom seems well underway.... https://www.reddit.com/r/Clojure/comments/ch90sh/fibers_and_continuations_in_clojure_with_project/
