Clojure Course Overview

Clojure Course Overview

The Clojure course is an immersive learning experience designed to introduce programmers to the Clojure programming language, a modern Lisp dialect for the Java Virtual Machine. It is perfect for developers seeking to expand their toolset and embrace functional programming paradigms.

Module 1 provides a foundational understanding of Clojure, discussing its benefits, setting up the environment, and exploring the available tooling. Module 2 delves into the basics of Clojure syntax and introduces the REPL, teaching learners how to create and execute Clojure projects. Module 3 focuses on defining and executing functions, including variadic and multi-arity functions. Module 4 covers the essentials of namespaces for code organization, while Module 5 reveals how to interface with Java code from Clojure.

Module 6 extends the syntax knowledge to more advanced structures, and Module 7 introduces functional programming concepts, emphasizing the importance of higher-order and anonymous functions. Module 8 explores Clojure’s rich data structures and sequence operations, and finally, Module 9 tackles polymorphism with types and records.

By the end of the course, learners will be well-equipped to write efficient and expressive code using Clojure, making the most of its functional programming features and seamless Java interoperability.

This is a Rare Course and it can be take up to 3 weeks to arrange the training.

Course Prerequisites

To ensure that you gain the maximum benefit from our Clojure course, we recommend that you have the following prerequisites before enrolling:


  • Basic understanding of programming concepts and structures such as variables, loops, and conditionals, which can be acquired from experience with any programming language (e.g., Python, Java, C#, etc.).
  • Familiarity with the command line interface (CLI) and basic shell commands, as Clojure development often involves interacting with the REPL and build tools via the command line.
  • Some exposure to functional programming principles would be helpful, though not strictly necessary as these will be covered during the training.
  • While not required, knowledge of Java and its ecosystem can be advantageous since Clojure runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and can interoperate with Java code.
  • An openness to learning a different programming paradigm, as Clojure's approach to functional programming and its Lisp syntax can be quite distinct from other programming languages.

These prerequisites are meant to provide a foundation for your learning experience. The course is designed to guide you through the intricacies of Clojure, starting from the basics. Even if you're not fully comfortable with all of the above points, a willingness to learn and engage with the course material will go a long way.
