The London Clojure Community:Clojure at Nokia Entertainment
Clojure at Nokia Entertainment
Clojure is a key language at Nokia Entertainment. One year ago we were beginners; today we have developers working with it almost full-time. We are using it in production and almost all new development has switched over from Java. We'd like to talk about how we got started, convinced others to join in and where we would like to go in the future. We hope to share some of our experiences, good and bad, and suggest what we might have done better. Finally we want to answer the most important question - has it made us more productive?
