Boot
Build tooling for Clojure
Boot is a Clojure build framework and ad-hoc Clojure script evaluator. Boot provides a runtime environment that includes all of the tools needed to build Clojure projects from scripts written in Clojure that run in the context of the project. Build processes for applications always end up being complex things. A simple web application, for instance, may require many integrations–asset pipelines, deployment to different environments, the compilation of multiple artifacts with different compilers, packaging, etc. The more complex the build process becomes, the more flexible the build tool needs to be. Static build specifications become less and less useful as the project moves toward completion. Being Lispers we know what to do: Lambda is the ultimate declarative. Instead of building the project based on a global configuration map, boot provides a runtime environment in which a build script written in Clojure can be evaluated. It is this script.
