Clojure Berlin
Details
This month we're doing a special edition of Clojure Berlin:
CLOJURE OFFICE HOURS
We'll start with a few Lightning talks. Bring a topic and go!
After lightning talks we will break into small groups to discuss specific Clojure topics:
## "Office Hours"
Troubleshoot a Clojure problem you have, or help others troubleshoot theirs. Ideally you bring a specific issue and laptop and hack on it. It's also OK to leave the laptop at home and chat about projects you're planning or are stuck with. (To learn more about the OFFICE HOURS format, see https://www.factual.com/blog/clojure-office-hours/)
## ClojureScript ecosystem
How CLJS relates to JS-land, churn, tooling, and our favorite ways to consume JS (webpack/shadow-cljs/npm/etc)
## REST & Beyond
How to choose libs for back-end web apps? Macros vs data, frameworks vs. assemble-your-own, and whether you want a "Rails for Clojure" or not.
## Strengths & Weaknesses
When to use Clojure and when NOT to use Clojure: discuss trade-offs, which languages fit which problems, performance, and the Clojure job market (from both sides).
## Community
How is the Clojure community doing? Discuss open source funding, growth of the language, contributing to clojure.core, and books and resources for learning as a beginner or advanced Clojurist
## [YOUR CHOICE HERE]
If you have a topic, feel free to add it!
Hope to see you there!
