Sam, thanks for the pointer to quilt. Looks really cool. I'm starting to
imagine a project with quilt and overtone together!
Regards,
Bill

In addition to following up on all the great suggestions above, I'd hack about
with Quil; it's a lot of fun and you'll get instant feedback. You'll also very
quickly run into the fun that is juggling pure fns, lazy sequences and
orchestrating side effects (to sketch stuff).
In addition to what has already been said. There are a few approaches I
take:
1) re-implement in Clojure some smallish project that you already have in
another language
practice seeing how to solve the same kinds of problems but using
idiomatic Clojure approaches. Since the project is

I throw in a warning here. core.clj
Ambrose and Meikel,
Those are excellent points, but IMO to really be a great clojure developer
you really can't get away with not having read the classic goodness that is
core.clj. :) And after that having read through the Java code at the core
of Clojure: the interfaces and the reader etc.

This is the ticket. You can read all the books you want (and they do help),
but working through 4clojure (and observing the solutions by others) will
teach you more and better than anything else you can do.

I have 2 questions, 1. does anyone have
1. does anyone have advice on getting somewhat

- Think of some (smaller) project you've had on your mind for a
while, and try to implement it using clojure
- Read all of the incoming questions on this list, or StackOverflow

The new Clojure book from O'Reilly looks like a great start for people
coming from more mainstream languages.

Can't recommend 4clojure ( http://www.4clojure.com/ ) highly enough; work
through each one, turn on the code golf feature, and subscribe (at
In addition to the things mentioned above the following will help -
Clojure Koans (https://github.com/functional-koans/clojure-koans) and
Clojure labrepl are good resources too (https://github.com/relevance/labrepl)
Planet Clojure is also a good collection of blogs.
