Real-time hot code deployment with Clojure

Few things help boost developer productivity more than speeding the delivery of code into running environments. Dynamic languages help by shortening development lifecycles and simplifying application models, and tools provide similar benefits for static languages such as Java and Scala, but these options are fundamentally partial workarounds.

This session details how Clojure—a dynamic, compiled JVM language—facilitates hot code deployment that completely eliminates turnaround time for developing locally, updating remote production servers, and even modifying code running on mobile devices. The presentation uses an open source, IDE-agnostic tool chain to demonstrate these capabilities and how they accelerate common development practices.
