And if you do need to touch Java for reasons Clojure doesn’t impose, the interoperability story is really good.

I’ve done this with internal libraries - it’s easy to get them pulled into a Clojure code base, wrap them in such a way that the ergonomics of the rest of your code aren’t ruined, and still treat them as a first class citizen for stuff like your build system, artifact stores, etc.

Clojure 1.12 (which is nearly done) is going to add a bunch of interop support - method values, array class syntax, Clojure fn -> Java functional interface conversion, stream support, etc.

Yes — and thank you for this work! Java functional interfaces were the only thing I was wishing for in the Clojure/JVM story. They will help me simplify code that interfaces with FoundationDB.
