We open sourced our Clojure computational notebook library, Clerk, today. Here's an example of combining Clerk with my WikiData wrapper, Mundaneum, to interactively ask for some physicists and what they invented/discovered. Not bad.

Once more I wish I could use Clojure for my work! The four problems that Clerk addresses are exactly the ones that make me dislike Jupyter. And one of them (no out-of-order execution) would be hard/impossible to port to languages that emphasize mutable data structures.

hi @Jack Rusher could you put your example(Mundaneum) in a separate repository so one could jump right into it? So a Empty repository only with deps to clear and mundaneum? I'm still only familiar with clojure dependency mechanism using project clj so I could not try this out although I would love to!

@curious_reader I'm planning to put a few examples of different fun things in a repo soon. 🙂

Nice Thank you @Jack Rusher I really like the SVG diagrams, I will start playing around wiht it a bit more
