I've been meaning to get my feet wet in Clojure, can anyone recommend a good:

A. Web tutorial intro B. Book




Check out Clojure for the Brave and True - http://www.braveclojure.com/


A reasonable recommendation. The book I'd recommend as an intro is Programming Clojure. It can be found used for cheap.


And after those you can try the "Joy of Clojure".


I used Aphyr's series to get started (I'm still a novice) and found it very useful to get going from zero: https://aphyr.com/tags/Clojure-from-the-ground-up


A) https://iloveponies.github.io/120-hour-epic-sax-marathon/ind... (I used this exact tutorial myself for learning clojure).

B) Living Clojure


For B, https://pragprog.com/book/vmclojeco/clojure-applied is very nice if you are coming from a traditional Java or OO background, and if you are familiar with design patterns but are wondering how to structure your code in a language style that is unfamiliar.


It requires that you know some Clojure already...
