Clojurians Log v2

Us at Pilloxa have built our stack on Clojure(Script) and have hosted a few meetups over the years and the interest has always been great. Imo the love for Clojure is totally here in Stockholm and there’s even a course on KTH, one of our major universities, that teaches good programming practices through Clojure so one can hope there will be many more Clojurians popping around in a while. 😄 What I’d say isn’t really here yet is the strong vocal community, but that’s just my opinion

Have to admit that I been amazingly non vocal in Gothenburg - shame on me 😞

Yeah. I've been part of hosting a meetup, which was well attended and also people there seemed passionate about Clojure. It's interesting with the lack of vocal advocacy, but maybe that is up to us to figure out how to enable. I think part of it is because Clojure seems mostly used in startups and the amount of slack for hosting meetups and general community work is very limited. Busy changing the world. 😃

Shame on me too. We have one of our offices in Gothenburg, heavy clojure practice, but we do most of our work for us clients so we somehow managed to forget there is a strong community in Sweden...albeit somewhat quiet.

This is exactly what happens to me. I work with non Swedes and kinda forget..

Out of interest, what company is it you work for?

Iund/malmo has some users (parkster, king games etc) but they're mostly under the radar afaik

Or maybe I just don't know where to look

I work for a Dutch organisation and most devs are in Spain at the moment.

It's a company I founded back in 2002. We (Iteego) are a consultancy with clients in USA and UK, delivery out of Gothenburg, but in reality most of our team members work out of our two offices in India. I work out of our office in Slovakia, our CTO handles GBG. Our clients tend to be fortune 500 online properties, mostly Enterprise java systems. Clojure has been like a secret weapon to us in that environment.
