The lein-noir plugin works with lein2 so you can just say:

lein new noir my-app
cd my-app
lein run

The webnoir.org website seems to provide reasonable documentation on
getting started. If you have suggestions to improve the documentation, I'm
sure Chris would be happy to receive them (I suspect the webnoir.org site
is also a repo on github so you can send pull requests).

I ported my web framework FW/1 from CFML to Clojure for my own use but feel
free to check that out too. Again, the simple lein2 approach works:

lein new fw1 my-app
cd my-app
lein run
(or PORT=8123 lein run to use a different port)

Documentation is minimal because it's deliberately a simple framework but
there's an example app, also ported from the CFML version, and more docs on
the CFML version's github repo - plus a fairly large user community for the
CFML version :)

I don't really thinks Rails-like frameworks fit with the Clojure way of
thinking. As Chas said, we're more inclined to combine a number of
libraries to help build an application than to use "frameworks". FW/1 uses
Ring and Enlive and provides just a thin convention-based veneer over those
to achieve most of what the CFML version has offered for three years :)
