Clojuary

Okay, so the goal is to write a simple app in ClojureScript by the end of February 2015.

I’m going to start with Aphyr’s “Clojure from the ground up” series, then write a bot for the upcoming CodinGame “The Great Escape” challenge and maybe pick up some exercises from the brilliant exercism.io.

I want to try Clojure & ClojureScript, because I hope that the latter will ease the pain of writing JavaScript applications. Sure, there are other alternatives for not writing JS directly, but I really admire the stuff David Nolen is doing, especially Om seems to be very interesting – I love React and this might make it even better. Oh, and this live ClojureScript coding session by Alexander Solovyov at Polyconf was pretty great, too

So, at the end of this month I’d like to have a working Om application.
