Designing in Clojure - an experience report
summary
Argues that designer–developer collaboration becomes practical with full‑stack Clojure by sharing code and conventions: uses hiccup templates for static UI states and a transform layer (heat style adapter) to add behavior, plus tools like ClojureScript, re-frame, Rum/Reagent, Sass and source-munch to extract variables and icons into a live style guide. Shows a design system wired into the app, reduces drift, speeds prototyping, and results in shipped features that users actually like.
