Clojurians Log v2
announcements 2026-08-25
First release of https://jlt-commons.github.io/raygui-jlt/ 24 raygui examples in Jolt (Clojure on Chez Scheme, no JVM). • raygui is raylib's immediate-mode GUI toolkit; this calls it directly over its C ABI through jolt.ffi - no wrapper library, no codegen, no C shim • 59 of raygui's 61 functions bound, plus a keyword-argument layer, in one namespace • Buttons, sliders, dropdowns, list views, tab bars, scroll panels, draggable windows, RGB and HSV colour pickers, six switchable .rgs themes • raygui is header-only, so the repo vendors the header and builds libraygui itself; there is nothing to install and no formula for it • A committed screenshot for every example, so the catalog browses without installing anything • One babashka task per example; bb check compiles all 24 headlessly • zlib licensed, matching raygui's own, since four examples are ports of raygui's

This release is a significant upgrade to previous versions of Slipway, including:

• Extended OIDC support including:
◦ Authorization Code Flow with Refresh Token redemption
◦ Client Credentials Flow
• Multi-Handler Server implementations
• Virtual Host pinning of Handlers to Connections
Thanks!

What is it's benefit over ring?
@d-t-w congrats! Good to see you post here. To clarify, the goal is to provide faithful access to the full Jetty API, right? It's not a ring adapter.
@neumann yes that's correct, more information in the post above.
Great article. Thank you!
No problem and thanks!
Hey @neumann while I've only ever had a small amount of interest in slipway in the past, I have had some DMs asking me for support/questions. If you think it useful I'd be happy to have a #slipway channel. I think, tbh the weight of maintainence is something that makes me thankful it's not a popular library.
Also the questions were mostly things that are covered in the readme, and other than that it's just Jetty-ish, so maybe not worth it
I think it makes sense to have a channel. Clojurians Slack has some very low traffic channels, but having a channel makes it easy to communicate with and get help from the right people.
Nice one, is it ok if I just go make one? Don't know what the etiquette is.
You know what I'll just go read the etiquette announcements info page or wherever that info is
Clojure 1.12.6-alpha1 is now available:
• https://clojure.atlassian.net/browse/CLJ-2794 - gen-class - incorrectly treats interface default methods as abstract, throwing when the var delegate is unbound. gen-class now treats an interface default method like any other concrete method, i.e. calling the super when the target var is unbound.
