Even a tutorial on how to read normal stack-traces would be cool to help take
an eager beginner from not knowing anything at all to having a good idea.
Sometimes you just need that resource to point something out to you: this is
the filename. This is the line. etc.
And honestly, if 4clojure

Is there a generalized framework we can use for such 'codeacademy' sites?
The closest thing that already exists I think is 4clojure, perhaps adding a
tracks-navigation sort of thing would address that specific need?
Though, I think my criticism with these things, is the best way to learn
really
Re: tagging issues, we should probably just ask clojure library authors to
add their projects to OpenHatch's issue indexers. They have them for
Github issues and JIRA, which covers clojure/core (JIRA) and *most* current
open source libs (Github). That way, each individual project maintainer
That's interesting. I think such a database of common errors would be an
extremely useful resource, not only for learning but also for development
of linting tools (I think this is more or less what Dynalint does right
now) and other tools. For example, I'd love to be able to flag these types

Below is a list of the top 1,000 clojure projects (by star count) from
github with issues with labels that sound somewhat appropriate for
newcomers. Don't worry, the final list is way less than 1,000.
Considering the list, we see that:

Leif, this is really cool. Thanks for taking the time to find this. I wish
there were wiki page where we could put this for safe keeping, so future n00bs
could find it. Or, maybe you could release the script you used to create this,
which of course would be in Clojure as well... ;-)

Wow, Leif. This is great. Thanks so much for doing this.
For #1 - Proposing a label for issues appropriate to newcomers seems like
something very doable to get this kickstarted. I propose bite-sized, to
keep in line with what OpenHatch https://openhatch.org/wiki/Bug_trackersdoes.
Does anyone
For now we can use a github repo:
https://github.com/marcuscreo/clojure-learning-resources
Send me a pull request, or let me know if you want access to edit directly.
I also put Leif's excellent list in the wiki portion of the repo as well.
Anyone doing something about this? I would like to start contributing to
some OSS it's the only chance I'll have to use clojure in something useful,
I don't have the privilege to use it at work but I really don't know where
to start.

+1 to this concept. Also, I don't live near a ClojureBridge workshop, or user
groups. One thing I've been arranging is pair programming sessions, which may
turn into something for helping folks meet each other and work on interesting
stuff. But, it's a different approach.

Great initiative!
I've been having the problem of not knowing what project to get into as it
often seems daunting. On the one hand, there are a ton of projects, on the
other hand, I have no clue where I actually might be able to help.
I'm sure a lot of other people experience the same.

That's a great idea. Someone should do that. At the very least, remote
pairing is a good idea for mentoring people to help with a project.

Hi Marcus,
Thanks for the offer of help. There's no mailing list yet. But I'll
certainly set that up, if need be.

is make it easy to setup. So let me know what else you could use, in
addition to what's in the

One idea: what about doing some remote pairing and virtual hackathon
sessions which let people work together? I went to a hackathon this
weekend and it seems like a great way to learn.
Thanks,
