Building a new product can be a lot of fun and you have to choose what technology stack will give you a good head start. Initially, the team chose Ruby on Rails to build a prototype which was great until our users started to grow significantly.
In this talk, I'll share our team's journey with Clojure, what worked for us and what didn't work so well.
We also tried to make Clojure more approachable, so I'll finish by sharing my thoughts on how Clojure could be advocated to appeal to the broader programming community.

I’m an experienced Clojure, Ruby, and Shell developer. In my professional career I have worked on client side projects (starting with old school tools like Prototype through Backbone to React), back-end applications (written in Clojure, Ruby and Go).
Most recently I’ve co-founded NomNom and work as a CTO.
I have a thing for LISPs.
