Clojure and 5 Things You Need to Know about it in 2021| Programming in Clojure | Clojurescript

Clojure is a Lisp dialect. It was originally designed by ‘Rich Hickey’ in an attempt to solve the problems he was having when writing situational programs. No matter which programming language he tried, the result was the same – software that required a monumental amount of time and effort just to make relatively small changes to the coding. Not ideal.

The project was a success, as his team enjoyed working within a framework where there were immutable data structures and a custom-designed functional library. By combining the functional programming language that was Lisp and running it on a JVM like Java designed for concurrent programs, Clojure was born.

I like how all the b roll in the background was like css and javascript and not clojure lol

[pipegris]

5:39 when you are writing some dirty hot macros

[hackermen]

I wish dislike count was available for this video -_-

[alerya]

for young people only. Seeing the video :)

[adicide]

talking about the jvm and showing random js code <3

[hipertracker]

Erlang, Elixir, Haskell, Elm are also immutable like Clojure

[agumonkey]

lisp syntax fits in 5 lines, yet everybody thinks it's harder than ada.. go figure

[MyAnno]

Scala is also running on a JVM and supports tailrecursion

[MichaelMichuki]

Jeesus, why dont you just show us the code instead of a bunch of people typing

[hemmper]

After watching all these Clojure developers in the video I realize I'm not pretty enough for this language.

[Ethorbit]

Less stock footage and more footage about the very language you're talking about please. Also nobody wants to wait 2 minutes before the point of the video.

[intermarer]

three+ minutes wasted. Miss the thumbs down count...

Fun video due to its huge contradictions. They are: maybe the most annoying and really vain and useless background music ever + super boring visuals and video materials (bought from some extremely blaaah blaah and over generalized media company) BUT every word about the Clojure was correct.
