    There's a whole family of libraries like that. Yesql is the first I became aware of. The repo has an (incomplete) list of ports to other languages: https://github.com/krisajenkins/yesql#other-languages

    Reminds me of a pull request I made a while ago

    https://github.com/krisajenkins/yesql/pull/151/files

    The first piece of code on the readme is "not the solution" (lol), and everybody I knew who was trying to use that library was copy-pasting that specific piece of code from the readme.

    If you're not familiar with lisps in general, it might be hard to grok the differences between lisp-macros (as used in Clojure) and "normal" macros you see in other languages.

    But, if you are familiar already, and just wanna see examples of neat macros that makes the API nicer than what a function could provide, here are a few:

  • How to handle concurrency in Clojure with core.async
    1 project | dev.to | 15 Jan 2024
    Hey, how you doing? This article was written right after I had to painstakingly read the clojure.core.async source code in order to finish a task. So, I hope I save you from the same fate as I had 😄.

  • Sleeping is not the best option
    2 projects | dev.to | 5 Dec 2022
    Some time ago we developed some helpers using the capturing notifications strategy to test asynchronous ClojureScript code that was using core.async channels. Have a look at, for instance, the expect-async-message assertion helper in which we use core.async/alts! and core.async/timeout to implement this behaviour. The core.async/alts! function selects the first channel that responds. If that channel is the one the test code was observing we assert that the received message is what we expected. If the channel that responds first is the one generated by core.async/timeout we fail the test. We mentioned these async-test-tools in previous post: Testing Om components with cljs-react-test.
  • What is the difference between Manifold and core.async?
    2 projects | /r/Clojure | 12 Aug 2022
    Hi there I'm using Clojure almost a year. I've played with both Manifold and core.async a bit but I'm not %100 sure when to use core.async over Manifold or vice versa.

    > and with a very poor tooling (lack of IDE's)

    Lisps have fantastic support in Emacs and VSCode and are in general simple enough languages that often the heavyweight of an IDE is not needed. But if you want IDEs there are:

    If you don't want to block the current thread, you can do the looking/waiting on another thread via thread or in a go using alts! .
