Having studied Lisp decades ago I like the look of Clojure a lot. But as a complete newbie when it comes to modern software development, I'm exasperated by what strikes me as a very difficult and primitive set of tools to get started. I keep seeing "Leinigen, Leinigen", and the Leinigen homepage boasts that "Leinigen offers the easiest way to get started with Clojure", but this simply isn't true. The easiest way to get started with Clojure that I've come across so far is IntelliJ IDEA. If I hadn't found that I'd probably have given up by now.
What got me back into programming recently was a Lua-based development environment for Android called Gideros. Lua seems popular for developing apps for some reason. (Cf Corona, Moia, Unity). It seems like quite a neat language, though I'd like to use something more Lisp-like. Maybe the tools are just too difficult for me at the moment, though I'll persevere for a bit. I'd like to achieve some simple graphics on an Android device at least. I've come across some tutorials for CLojure and jMonkey and I'm wondering to dive into that, though I'm still unsure whether OpenGL is the way to go for simple 2D stuff... -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
