[@james-perkins]

Good to see you back!

[@KelvinMai]

Thanks James! :)

[@morter96]

What a great video! it really helped me understand higher order functions
Thanks for making this, hope you get more views soon!

[@andersoncarvalho5484]

Thanks so much! Best crash course on Clojure I've ever seen!

[@usopenplayer]

Kelvin, thank you so much. I appreciate your style of teaching, it's easier to understand compared to other Clojure videos I have watched.
I am currently struggling with how Middleware works, I see you use the Nrepl Middleware, I am trying to use several different Middleware together, but I don't understand how it all fits together.
If you are doing another Clojure training video, I would love it if you could cover this concept.

[@williamtsanders]

thanks dude! just started using clojure for work, it's a great community

[@rafifarhan8964]

love the content! really help me a lot as a beginner in clojure

[@avimehenwal]

loved this video .... awesomne content. This is how its done

[@onthecodeagain]

Really impressive how much you cover in a single video! Awesome :D

[@odanabunaga2505]

thanks for the video, Kelvin!

[@szymonchudy]

Thanks! You've helped me a lot 🙏

[@RobinSingh-ms3zt]

Awesome tutorial learned alot.

[@diegonayalazo]

Thanks for creating Kevin

[@dormammun]

Great tutorial 🫡

[@avimehenwal]

just finished watching this entire video. I am learning clojure so would like to ask you
what kind of material and resources (in terms of blogs, forums etc.) do you use to get help and reference for clojure related tasks?

[@hooptierescue2540]

Thanks for this. Do you share your doom configs anywhere?

[@MarcAndreuFernandez]

Hi Kelvin, thanks for you video. Could you please consider doing a video about your vim - clojure dev environment?

[@ArthurSchoppenweghauer]

what's with the constant jump cuts? can't you string together a coherent sentence?

[@nicolekho7791]

this video fire

[@theharrisonmiller]

great video - just a quick correction that LISP is short for "List Processing"

[@sergeboisse]

Well, LISP is also the acronym for "Lots of Insipid and Stupid Parentheses" ...😀

[@lizzienovigot]

vector might behave like queue but its implementation is much more efficient for a "random index access" -its almost like traditional array in non functional languages

[@altoma3562]

Enjoyed the video; what linux distribution do you use? Thanks!

[@komischerkommentator1973]

Pop!_OS

[@neilclay5835]

good vid

[@eugenemosh3658]

♥

[@Oi-mj6dv]

List processor*

[@vbcv1]

sdkman is like nvm for java world

[@conforzo]

Why you skip how to install Clojure though?

[@tuluwa]

omg its proZD teaching how to code

[@nonefvnfvnjnjnjevjenjvonej3384]

while this is good i have a critique for your channel. what a lot of these language tuts miss out on is how to actually think in clojure. look at tsoding and his haskell videos as an example. without that your videos become another run of a mill introduction.
