Spent an hour looking into adding async/await support to CLJS. Turns out it's not so difficult. I'm sure there's a few edge cases to iron out, but doable.

Wow, babashka conf 2026 registration wasn't even open for a week and all 50 places are gone, 5 on waiting list. I'm going to try to book a venue that fits 70 so hopefully all on the waiting list + a few more can fit in... fingers crossed.

Happy to see this being used. #clojure macros are easier and easier to support together with static analysis in #cljKondo. Eventually I want running macros from source to be near zero-friction. Something I'll hopefully look at in 2026.

Note about #babashka_conf: CfP will open after CfP of @ClojureDays closes. We can't pay for travels (unless we unexpectedly get lots of sponsors which I haven't thought about). So if you consider doing a talk but can't pay your way here, consider applying for @clojuredays CfP too

Looking for a space to host a software mini-conference (BabashkaConf 2026) for 50-60 people 8th of May 26. We need chairs, a beamer, some coffee/water. What are good options in Amsterdam or near?
Perhaps someone at a company university is interested in co-operating?

Calva uses clojure-lsp. Clojure-lsp uses #cljKondo. Clj-kondo uses #clojure. So we had to bring all these people together on one photo, including the author of Clojure! This is a photo of us being photographed by someone else btw

Run:

Lots of reasons to love using Clojure, but Netflix reminded us of why we don’t want to use anything else…
In 12 years, over 7 different versions of Clojure (from 1.5.1 to 1.12.0) they had zero migrations!
I don’t know how to express how amazing that is
