Signafire Hosts Clojure Meetup: “Debugging in Clojure”

Signafire is one of only a handful of companies in the New York tech community that use the Clojure coding language. To continue our knowledge-sharing efforts with the Clojure community, Signafire hosted a Meetup dedicated to debugging in Clojure, featuring a presentation by our own, Ahmad Ragab.

Ahmad’s presentation was a beginner friendly introduction to the Clojure debugging ecosystem. Specifically, he presented a number of techniques and tools – including spies, CIDER (an Emacs plugin
specifically designed for Clojure) and Cursive (an IntelliJ Plugin) – that can help diagnose and discover specific issues in which stacktraces are not sufficient.

In attendance were a range of entrepreneurs and engineers interested in the Clojure language.

Attendees munched on a spread of pizza and beer, and each took home a Signafire t-shirt and a bottle-opener.
