An opinionated list of excellent Clojure learning materials

These resources (articles, books, and videos) are useful when you’re starting to learn the language, or when you’re learning a specific part of the language. This an opinionated list, no doubt. I’ve compiled this list from writing and teaching Clojure over the last 10 years.

# An opinionated list of excellent Clojure learning materials

These resources (articles, books, and videos) are useful when you're starting to learn the language, or when you're learning a specific part of the language. This an opinionated list, no doubt. I've compiled this list from writing and teaching Clojure over the last 10 years.

Hello! Awesome to see you here.

Wonderful initiative! IMO (biased, yes) the Calva Getting Started REPL fits in the Getting into the language category. I know of quite a few people who have learnt their first Clojure that way.

Also, I’ve made an editor based version of 4Clojure. GitHub - PEZ/rich4clojure: Practice Clojure using Interactive Programming in your editor The rationale being that it’s good to practice Clojure in the way you are using it for real projects.

I would humbly suggest adding Olsen’s “Getting Clojure”. IMHO the clearest written book on clojure, and a great compliment to the others on there.

Thx for the list!
