Re: Entity–component–system and Clojure

Alex Kehayias gave a talk about designing a functional game engine in ClojureScript, using components, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW1ie0pIO_E I thought it was a superb talk. There's also Arcadia, here: https://github.com/arcadia-unity/Arcadia which wrap's Unity3D in Clojure, but

Java learning resources for Clojurists?

Hi there, Can anyone recommend decent resources for learning Java for experienced Clojurists who don't do enough interop? After writing Clojure for about a year and a half, I find that the most continuous barrier I encounter is in understanding how to drop down to the JVM. And it's even a

Re: Entity–component–system and Clojure

A while ago, I wrote a library called *brute *as an ECS library for Clojure + ClojureScript. Articles: http://www.compoundtheory.com/category/brute/ Github: https://github.com/markmandel/brute https://github.com/markmandel/brute-play-pong Mark On 15 August 2017 at 18:49, James Reeves

Entity–component–system and Clojure

I recently stumbled upon the entity-component-system design pattern which is popular in game engine design: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity%E2%80%93component%E2%80%93system, and really liked what I saw, thought it could be a good fit for Clojure. Basically, it has three concepts: 1)

Re: Entity–component–system and Clojure

I wrote Ittyon a little while ago, which is a database partially inspired by the entity-component model, but uses a more clojurey architecture. There are also experiments with trying to make rule systems like Clara fast enough to use in games. On 16 August

Clojure rookie vs parsing

Hi Months ago I read a review that praised Clojure's clean approach and use of JVM that is almost always available in my deployments. My background: started with 370 assembly ( so I'm not young!!!) and during the last four years I've been using Erlang for network applications. For my type

Re: Clojure rookie vs parsing

If you need the features of Erlang but would like that in a Lisp (not Common Lisp, though) environment, have you taken a look at LFE (Lisp Flavored Erlang)? I'm not trying to discourage you from looking at Clojure, but if you need/depend on some of the features of Erlang, LFE might be a closer

Re: Clojure rookie vs parsing

Thanks for your input. LFE is quite an unexpected "thing". What I'm trying to do, is just a "lunch time project"; something that I can target without corporate constrains just as a learning exercise. Furthermore I can test the Clojure version against my old working Java version. As I was

Hi, Instaparse is a great parser generator, especially if you already have a BNF. Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 15, 2017, at 08:44, sventrax...@gmail.com wrote: > > Thanks for your input. LFE is quite an unexpected "thing". > > What I'm trying to do, is just a "lunch time project"; something

Re: Clojure rookie vs parsing

I enjoyed working with clj-antlr recently, it's a wrapper over a java library, but gives you a fast feedback loop with an interpreter instead of generated java code. The 'clojurey' part is that the output is a nested sequence, from there it's really effective to use tree zippers and core.match to
