clj-fdb | Designing a Clojure library for working with databases by Vedang Manerikar

In this talk, we'll see how to design a Clojure library.

• What are the guiding principles when writing a library?
• What are the tools in the Clojure language that we should leverage?
• What are the challenges we are likely to face?

P.S.:

• We will use clj-fdb library code as a means to understand.
• No previous knowledge of writing libraries or FoundationDB is necessary.

Take Aways:

• Understanding composability and why it is important
• Common sense design principles
• How to evaluate libraries.
