I've been developing a library to bring Clojure data to Java developers. By
"Clojure data" I mean both Clojure's persistent immutable data structures
*and* serialized Edn data. I wanted access to Clojure's capabilities
without having to use Clojure<->Java interop directly or make use of
downcas
Really cool library, thanks for sharing. I was initially irked by the use
of (mutable) Java collection interfaces, but then I read that they're made
immutable when passed to the builder. I assume they're recursively
converted to persistent representations.
It reminded me of Guava's immutable class
Set, Util, and List are actually just interfaces, and Clojure's collections
implement them. The destructive operations throw
UnsupportedOperationException of course, which is actually explicitly
allowed by the spec:
* The "destructive" methods contained in this interface, that is, the

Perhaps if you make it easily available (making an early release) more
people would use it and you might get more feedback then. You can always
change interfaces, conventions etc.

I'll look into it, I'm just sort of reluctant because I don't think people
take beta warnings seriously. In the meantime, if all you want is a .jar
file, you can just clone the git repo and run the Gradle build. You should
also be able to open up the repo as an IntelliJ project. (Let me know if
Absolutely. I don't believe consumers (of open source projects) are
entitled to anything anyway. I think it's a cool project and I hope it gets
the attention.

This has proven to be somewhat complicated, but I've finally pushed a
release of 0.1 to the staging repository. (I also added support for
validating nested collections.) If all goes well, it should be available
via Maven Central within a day or two.
