We'll take a close look at core.async - the CSP library for Clojure(script).

• The motivation
• Problems suitable for CSPs to handle
• Syntax
• Patterns

Given the minimalist nature of Lisps, the syntax is underwhelming, but applications can be exciting in the manner they make complex problems within reach.

Language interoperability is the capability of two different programming languages to natively interact as part of the same system. Interoperability is advantageous because different programming languages are optimized for specific tasks, and allowing them to communicate can create better systems.

Apart from the Java language, the most common or well-known JVM languages are:

• Scala, a statically-typed object-oriented and functional programming language
• Clojure, a modern, dynamic, and functional dialect of the Lisp programming language
• Kotlin, a statically-typed language

In this session, we'll demonstrate how your program can interop with different JVM languages.

Clojure is capable of leveraging everything your JVM provides. And you are convinced of the benefits this LISP brings to your productivity. In this workshop, we target bridging the gap between your expressive and beautiful Clojure code, and the huge, daunting world of the Enterprise. With some small, helpful steps.

We'll specifically target

• Going beyond the linear flows - making core.async practical
• Confidence building measures - Clojure spec
• Demystifying the wormhole - JVM interop
• Practical tidbits - Introducing Clojure to your existing apps
• Graduating - Build tooling and publishing for both library and standalone application use-cases
