we are currently developing a game server backend using clojure.

we are using grails for the web app aspect, and uses the grails

in this case, we are really using grails for the web aspect, but uses
clojure for AI and game logic. clojure is very good at that.

too many scattered libraries and approaches. For me, it's about
problem solving. I would like to be able to just grab something, and
get it started. Right now, if a new clojure user ask, I want to develop
a web app, what should I use? Compojure? Ring? What template
system should I use? enlive? str html? hiccup? How do you deal with
database? clj-record? clojuresql? How do you make outbound
REST request?

clojure is still young. I hope in time, a web dev approach that's
more clojure-ish. lift has done a good way to show what a web
framework using scala and functional style would look like.

I look forward to see something like this for clojure one day.
