Looking for open source project in clojure to work on for "vacation" have 2weeks .. thinking clojurescript, loom, oynx ... others? I’ve been doing clojure on the side for 1.5yrs but really ready to dive in … want to find a project with helpful maintainers/community where I can ask questions. simple_smile simple_smile

jwm19:06:22

you know immutant has a good community

jwm19:06:46

not sure how much is needed to be done there but generally redhat involved projects are pretty active/telling of what work needs done

jballanc19:06:19

@clojuregeek: I’ve heard good things about the reagent team/community if you’re willing to expand in the ClojureScript direction.

arrdem19:06:30

@clojuregeek: In my experience Loom is not especially fast moving, although new graph algorithms are always welcomed eventually.

clojuregeek20:06:55

@jballanc: @arrdem … thanks! … I know the lady who is maintaining loom, so I sent her a message on if there is anything i can do to help

clojuregeek20:06:51

thanks @jwm .. i’ll check it out simple_smile

arrdem20:06:26

@clojuregeek: what do you want to work on? library infrastructure? tooling?

clojuregeek20:06:04

@arrdem: hmm mostly what i’ve done in past is web apis, web applications, so i want to do something completely different like onyx or something.. or… maybe I should do clojurescript since thats more of what I have been doing

clojuregeek20:06:50

I’ve thought about writing tutorials too as well as code, I like to explain things once I figure them out simple_smile

danielcompton23:06:48

@clojuregeek: something that would be cool is to work on https://github.com/aysylu/loom/issues/60. It would require porting all .clj libraries that loom depends on to .cljc

danielcompton23:06:02

@clojuregeek: I’ve been looking at it a bit and am happy to help/give feedback

clojuregeek23:06:33

thanks @danielcompton I’ll put it on my list…

I’m looking for best practices on dealing with Java => CLJ interop. So advice in terms of best practices for wrapping objects, etc. Any recs?
