Whenever I try and sell Clojure, I sell four things:
1. JVM based deploy and performance. 2. A complete state model for safe and easy concurrency 3. Macros to eliminate boilerplate and add features otherwise impossible 4. An ecosystem of decoupled libraries that take a "no magic" approach, meaning fewer nasty surprises at update time. Beyond that I would point out how leiningen just works, and do some examples. -- Ashton Kemerling On Thu, Aug 21, 2014 at 6:32 AM, Serzh Nechyporchuk <nechyporc...@gmail.com> wrote: > Good idea, I am always a more technical person, but your way will be >> more productive. >> It is a two day event.
