I'm developing applications in CFML, which runs on the JVM. If you use the open source Railo version, it is possible to run Clojure and CFML side by side, sharing data structures between them, which should allow you to refactor, or initially build, those parts of the application that would benefit from Clojure, while still leveraging the fast and easy development that CFML provides. My long term plan is to look at leveraging Clojure's strengths within the current codebase I'm developing. The short-term plan is to rapidly get the app to a stage where it is feature complete using CFML only.
CFML has its legacy warts (as I'm sure PHP has as well), which can be simply avoided when writing code. But it will be very easy for a developer coming into CFML to get up to speed with the language. With the proper guidance, a developer new to the language can be productive in several days to a week's time. http://github.com/framework-one/cfmljure Aria Media Sagl Via Rompada 40 6987 Caslano Switzerland +41 (0)91 600 9601 +41 (0)76 303 4477 cell skype: ariamedia On Thu, Mar 13, 2014 at 8:13 AM, Savas Alparslan <alpar...@gmail.com> wrote: > Bad mouthing PHP only leads to more resistance. > > This video would help. > > Master Plan for Clojure Enterprise Mindshare Domination > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WLgzCkhN2g > > > > On Wed, Mar 12, 2014 at 11:00 PM, <da...@dsargeant.com> wrote: > >> I just spent the day writing this document for my boss, called "The case >> for Clojure."
