Another great source of structured knowledge of newbie-level Clojure: http://iloveponies.github.io/120-hour-epic-sax-marathon/index.html

@pxlpnk: may, too, be useful for you

rishat: thank you I put it into my notes

Hello. Is http://atom.io a good editor to code clojure?

don’t know, never tried it. I wouldn’t use clojure(or any lisp) in an editor that doesn’t have support for a repl.

Thats the problem, it lacks a good support for REPL.

I think I’ll need to learn how to use Emacs…

you can also use IntelliJ + Cursive.

adlermedrado: No need to, there is cursive in intellij which is beta and free for now and lighttable which remains free

I'd strongly advise against learning clojure and emacs at the same time

Great. I’ll look this stack (IntelliJ+Cursive).

Thanks for the advise

I already use PHPStorm (based on IntelliJ) to code in PHP, so I think it’ll be easier for me if I choose IntelliJ+Cursive.

Definitly

OTOH I have to admit I am very biased against emacs

lot of people are…

If you’re looking for an interface more similar to Atom (slimmed down, GUI based text-editor) LightTable and NightCode both focus on Clojure integration and fall into that category

and for learning I found Lighttable to be the most useful tool with it's editor evaluation

I still fire it up from time to time instead of using the repl, helps me somehow figuring maps and reduce out

is there a simple library for handling tcp client duties? I was looking at aleph, but I don't need codecs. Just send and receive a string, hopefully dealing with chunking behind the scenes.

Thank you all.
