Stuart Halloway presents practices to make Clojure codebases clearer and more evident at scale, drawing from his experience with Datomic.
According to Webster, evident means "clear to the vision or understanding." In this talk, I will present specific practices that you can apply to make your code more evident, particularly on larger projects. It is relatively easy to make toy-sized programs evident, but the exciting aspect of these ideas is their application at scale. I will share insights from my own experience applying these practices on a multi-year product effort undertaken in Clojure.
