We find a clear and pure heart in our application, unclouded by side effects.
We turn our attention to the frontend, and our eyes burn from the complexity.
We look for a suitable place to dig into the code and find an entry point.
We find ourselves staring at code for the first time—even though we wrote some of it!
We loop back to our new approach and find more, and less, than we expected!
Our downloads fail at random, but our dead program won't give us any answers.
We start testing our code only to discover we need the whole world running first!
We push our software to reach out to the real world and the real world pushes back.
We realize we're done exploring when all of the pieces fall into place.
We find ourselves in a murky situation, so we go to our REPL-connected editor to shine some light on the details.
We tackle a new application, thinking it'll be an easy win—only to discover that our home run was a foul, and the real world is about to strike us out!
We reflect on Clojure, the community, and how much we have to be thankful for.
We reflect on keeping the necessary mess at the edges so our core can be composed together with beauty and simplicity.
