    Great and concise guidelines applicable to Clojure and other languages.

    The slides are superb!

  • Of much wider relevance than the title suggests!

    Just wanted to say to anyone browsing that this is an excellent talk, which is of much more general interest than its title suggests.

    It discusses management of module dependencies within Clojure codebases, which is a problem not just in the large but in the medium as well. A lot of the advice is also good advice for design in general. In particular, it much of it is connected to Stuart's work on the "reloaded" workflow, which allows development without frequent REPL restarts, and which is now illustrated in the jig project template on github

    Useful as learning material - things to watch when designing and coding
