alexyakushev: привет )

Hello Kirill, we stick to English in this channel if you don't mind;)

You can PM me in Russian if you want

alexyakushev: it just was a happiness to see russian on the channel

@lowl4tency I share your excitement with that :D

alexyakushev: could you share an expirience with android and clojure? Is it usable for production apps?

You can see my 4clojure app as an example

Depends how you define "production". If it's an app for millions of users, to be developed by a team of twenty people, and needs an instant loading time - then it's not ready for that yet. But for smaller projects, experiments that might turn up publishable, internal things with lighter performance requirements - it can work just fine.

BTW I gonna release a new version very soon, with Material niceties and stuff

In my experience, Clojure gives a tremendous boost for Android development, especially while you are experimenting and figuring out stuff

True

the repl is invaluable when you're using some new functionality

or even just straying from the beaten path a little bit

The basic android environment is pretty well documented. But you're almost guaranteed to run into poorly documented functionality.

alexyakushev: thank you for the detail answer, I’m planning to create an app for my own purposes, but I don’t exclude an opportunity that it can be used by several thousands people

@lowl4tency Then you should be fine at least trying out CoA. If you like it you'll want to continue using it, otherwise you can switch back to conventional approach early.

alexyakushev: so, could you share a link or a resource for getting started

You said about an your project

Ah, sure

http://clojure-android.info

I can thought you came here from there

alexyakushev: nope, I’ve just lurked channels

Thank you
