Is pedestal still a good choice for writing a Clojure back-end? The last release is 6 months old and there is not much traffic here or on the mailing list. Is the project no longer actively developed? Any alternatives to consider?

Still valid and widely used, to my knowledge. But as always, do consider the alternatives from juxt, metosin, and of course whatever luminus suggests.

@defa still valid. Pedestal core is stable so there aren’t many changes being made. I’d consider the most fluid part of Pedestal to be tracing and lambda integration.

Cool, thanks, @ddeaguiar
