hi, Which is the preferred choice for implementing websockets, Immutant or http-kit profile. This page mentions about http-kit http://www.http-kit.org/600k-concurrent-connection-http-kit.html

yogthos16:03:03

both should work reasonably well

yogthos16:03:16

if you’re using Sente then it can transparently use either one

yogthos16:03:40

I’ve got a couple of sample projects illustrating basic websocket usage with both here https://github.com/luminus-framework/multi-client-ws-immutant and here https://github.com/luminus-framework/multi-client-ws-http-kit

I have got a chat app that talks to rabbitMQ , but since not many people use clojure, it becomes a challenge to help them understand the ease and quick development

rnandan27316:03:38

thanks so much for your reply, i started using your clojure book, till now it has been good going, but the only things is convincing people of using clojure

yogthos16:03:18

yeah I think it’s important to show how you can go from 0 to an app in a few minutes

yogthos16:03:01

one of my main goals with luminus is to make it as simple as possible to get something up and running

rnandan27316:03:06

my next work is to convince people or using pulsar w.r.t Akka

yogthos16:03:26

yeah I’ve used it for a few toy projects, it’s quite nice

yogthos16:03:49

might be useful simple_smile

rnandan27316:03:14

thanks a lot, i think performance of pulsar should be on par with Akka

yogthos16:03:39

it looks very competitive

rnandan27316:03:51

if i use clojure people ask me , how do i get people to fix bugs later on, but the thing is there are less bugs in clojure dev

rnandan27316:03:06

and getting clojure developers is also difficult

yogthos16:03:21

I find that part is a bit overblown

yogthos16:03:35

we’ve been using Clojure for about 5 years now on my team and we never had a problem hiring people

yogthos16:03:50

most people we hire never seen clojure or fp before, but they pick it up in a few weeks

rnandan27316:03:51

but in India not many are there with clojure

rnandan27316:03:07

for me i happened to learn out of curiosity

rnandan27316:03:12

and your book helped me a lot

yogthos16:03:15

everybody doesn’t have to be an expert, as long as people can start doing basic tasks, they can learn more as they go

yogthos16:03:22

glad to hear it simple_smile

rnandan27316:03:50

now i do react-native using re-natal, re-frame and some data handling with datomic

yogthos16:03:09

I still have to play around with that 😉

rnandan27316:03:13

for me re-usability across was a big win

yogthos16:03:27

haven’t had a chance to dive into re-natal, it looks fun simple_smile

rnandan27316:03:23

i had used vert.x with clojure, but i see that in version 3 they dropped clojure support

rnandan27316:03:30

no idea why they did that

rnandan27316:03:50

any ideas? or is Immutant better than vert.x?

rnandan27316:03:14

sorry i am asking some questions , there are not many clojure experts that i can approach here

rnandan27316:03:51

It was good talking to you, thanks again
