Hello everybody, System started its life as a component library, a high-level convenience library on top of Stuart Sierra's components, providing community-backed, ready-made components: http-kit, datomic, monger and the usual suspects.
System 0.0.8 has just been released, but it is not the same anymore. It is different, changed--even I have trouble to recognize its old self. I suppose you could call this a metamorphosis. Indeed, this looks every bit like the workings of a spell. System has met Boot, and the attraction has proven irresistible. The two went off, and there is nothing I could do to stop it. With Boot, system acts like a smooth operator, enhancing your flow. It aims to take care of the nitty-gritty aspects of keeping an application up *while *it is being written. In the seventies, they called this Interactive programming. It is also known as REPL-based programming, Lisp-style programming or live coding. Here are some of the properties that boot-system brings to your workflow: - Manual and automatic mode, ie. either you manipulate the system in the REPL, or you configure it to react to editing changes. - Restartable system. What warrants a system restart is user-configurable. File-based granularity. - Changes that do not require a restart are available in the running system instantly (via namespace reloading). - Full Lisp-style interactive programming via the REPL and hot-reloading in the browser.

As a matter of fact, the latest version ships with a new ElasticSearch component, courtesy of Jan Stępień.
