Presentation: "Clojure and the Web"

Time: Friday 15:35 - 16:35

Location: St James’s Suite, Fourth Floor

Abstract:

Clojure is a relatively new functional programming language, but its Lisp heritage and JVM integration have attracted a lot of programmers and quickly resulted in a lot of progress. Several web development libraries have already been built for Clojure, and numerous applications are already in production using some of those libraries.

This talk will explore web programming using Clojure, focusing on Ring (a simple Clojure interface to web servers), Compojure, and various options for functional generation of HTML and XML.
