As of today, Garden is officially out of alpha and in to beta! The library now sports media queries<https://github.com/noprompt/garden#media-queries>(via meta data) and parent selector references<https://github.com/noprompt/garden#parent-selector-references>(ie. "&hover"). With these new features it is now possible to build more sophisticated stylesheets bringing us a step closer to having a viable CSS alternative in Clojure.
Over the course of the next few weeks, I plan to continue improving the library by adding "missing" features and functions to make the library as powerful as possible when it's release as 0.1.0 stable. Now more than ever, I would like to encourage others in the community to reach out with suggestions and code review. This my first "real" Clojure library and after only six months with the language I'm sure it could benefit greatly from both of these things.
