Sometime in the Fall of 2012 or Spring 2013 I volunteered to do a presentation on embedding Clojure. Embedding Clojure in what? "Well all kinds of things...let's see what we can do." I covered the first five examples in an interactive presentation on July 8, 2013 at the Austin Clojure Meetup.

• Call Clojure from Java the recommended way
• Using Clojure to make a library jar for use in Java the hard way
• Clojure as a JSR-223 scripting language
• Call Clojure from Scala
• Embedding a Clojure REPL

• Clojure-Powered annotations
• Clojure streamed down the wire
• Clojure in a PostgreSQL database (WIP)
• Clojure on a raspberryPi
• Clojure compiled down to LLVM on a device?

• Steve Suehs

Additionally, the information here is compiled from the sweat and tears of others who posted to the internet for our collective benefit.

• The hard way, my first try based on Java preconceptions. Works in OSGi environment.

• This is the way the clojure team (Stu,...) suggest.

• Java validation annotation, but the validations are in clojure. http://skife.org/2009/07/05/embedding_clojure.html
