Greetings everyone, About a year ago I began working on Garden and in the short time the library has been around it's grown a bit. Although many folks seem to be interested in it, there's certainly not as much adoption of the library as I'd like to see. Sass, Less, and (god help us) pure CSS still appear to be the default choices for many people writing web applications in Clojure.
This is something I'd like to change... but I need *your* help! No, no. Put down the phone. Don't look for a KickStarter URL. It's nothing like that. How you can help Garden I'm looking for individuals who are interested in the following: - improving the compiler code - improving/extending existing API's - building an interface to the CSSOM I'm also open to good 'ol fashioned suggestions, pain points you've experienced using the library, or flat out letting me know what it would take to get you to choose Garden over the alternatives for your next project. How you can help Thorn Thorn is very young project and has no official release yet. So what is it? At the moment it's the beginnings of a Sass Parse Tree transformer; something that will take CSS/SCSS/Sass code and give you Garden code. There's a lot of fabulous libraries available in Sass and I'm sure it's a big factor when choosing how to go about CSS generation. I'm looking for individuals who are interested in the following: - accurately transforming CSS/SCSS/Sass to real Clojure code targeting Garden - accurately transforming Less to real Clojure code targeting Garden Why? I deeply believe that being able to author CSS in Clojure or ClojureScript is a key piece to having an extremely compelling story for web application development in Clojure. Being able to *program* CSS and not just *preprocess* is a big advantage over existing tools. Being able to use all of Clojure everywhere has astounding possibilities. If any of this sounds interesting to you please get in contact with me or reply here. I will also be in San Francisco tomorrow until Tuesday for Clojure/West if you'd like to discuss these items in person.
