The upside of using Java is that it's very widely documented. Also, I find people on this mailing list to be very helpful. Nonetheless, I'm sure it's frustrating to have to learn about Java when you just want to do some Clojure.
I've previously written about using Webbit with Clojure: http://blog.jayfields.com/2011/02/clojure-web-socket-introduction.html afaik, the post should be up to date and still working. Feel free to email me if you run into any issues. On Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 8:25 AM, larry google groups <lawrencecloj...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Thank you.
