What this may look like for Clojure in 2015 is probably very different
than what it looked like for Ruby in 2004. It may be a traditional
framework, a lein template, a standard pattern of code, a set of
conventions and loosely coupled protocols, pretty much exactly what we
have now, or something entirely different.
I think the ideal* would be a single starting point
(website/brand/platform), with a mix of literate programming and library
store. It could be a bit like a checklist of general concerns like
routing, authentication and so on, listing and comparing mature
libraries for each of those.
If a literate program explains what is to be achieved and how you go
about it in code, this would extend that concept to library selection.
This would be the place to find out if seemingly competing libraries
happen to have different strengths. Where library authors explain their
choices and may find ways to join forces. Where it will be made clear,
if a library does happen to be the best in its field or simply stands
alone. Yes, of course I do see problems around reaching consensus ;)
The development branch of this resource should be a gathering point for
the community to define current best practices.
* ideal for newcomers to learn how to go about web development, where
covering standards like blogs and stores are not only matters for
themselves, but serve as basis for free-form exploration. Ideal for
seasoned developers for collaborating on furthering the whole field.
