Last week, at the Clojure/West conference, someone (I think it was Brandon Bloom) summed up the general vibe well, by saying something along the lines of, "We now have all the pieces in place to make web development an order of magnitude more productive than in any other language, we just need to figure out how to put it all together and make that happen."
I think that's right. From a technological standpoint, I think we're there. The things we most need are informational resources and higher-level shared resources, such as UI widgets. For example: How do we use Buddy/Friend effectively to achieve secure web apps? (The docs are not sufficiently informative for those who haven't thought much about security and assume too much prior knowledge). How do we effectively leverage some of the more advanced Clojure-oriented webservers such as Aleph and Immutant? Clojure is great for creating new, disruptive web models, but what's the easiest path to creating something that can be done trivially with, say, Drupal or Django? Since more and more people are working with Reagent/Om/etc., we need as many Bootstrap-like widgets as possible for those tools, and more informational resources about how to use these new reactive models effectively, for example, how to do animated UIs. Are there reusable components like, say, shopping baskets? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
