I've put together a small, static site inspired by The Ruby Toolbox
(ruby-toolbox.com), called (of course) The Clojure Toolbox.

It's currently just a series of categorized links to Clojure projects,
but I'll be gradually adding more functionality to it over the coming
weeks. If you've been to the Ruby Toolbox site you'll likely know what
to expect (project descriptions, links to Clojars, GitHub watchers and
forks, etc.)

The URL to the site is:

http://www.clojure-toolbox.com

I'm sure I've covered only a very small proportion of Clojure
libraries out there, so if you'd like to suggest a project that's not
on there, please do so in this thread, or in an email to me. I'll try
and update the site as quickly as possible.

How about a Music & Sound Synthesis section with a pointer to Overtone?

Looks fantastic, this is exactly what I was thinking about when I said Clojure libraries need more discoverability.

Excellent work.

I'd like to see some graphics libraries. Penumbra would be a great addition.

Added. I wasn't quite sure how to classify slice, so I've put it under
"Template Languages" for the time being.

James, this is awesome stuff!

I don't want to crowd up the space, but I'd love to see a section for
Machine Learning projects (and perhaps lump nlp and collective
intelligence into that). I also think screen-scraping would be worth
considering.

If there's a machine learning section then maybe genetic programming would be reasonable too, in which case https://github.com/lspector/Clojush.

Sure, you just need to point me toward machine learning projects
written in Clojure.

I like to suggest

clj-json https://github.com/mmcgrana/clj-json
a fast JSON encoder/decoder that uses jackson.

clojuresque https://bitbucket.org/kotarak/clojuresque/src
clojure plugin for gradle (a very good build system)

clj-time https://github.com/getwoven/clj-time
clojure binding for jodatime

clothesline https://github.com/BankSimple/Clothesline
port of erlang webmachine to clojure

work https://github.com/getwoven/work
a worker pool system

Greetings,

First, thanks for setting up Clojure Toolbox.

Second, ring-json-params link should be fixed. (Missing "s" at the
end.)

Cheers,

Great site! Clean, simple, and very useful.

There's a missing 'n' at the end of the link to ring-basic-authentication.

The "Beta" label doesn't mean what it used to mean. Today, it's unflattering and unnecessary to have it on display.

Thanks for doing this. You're awesome!

You're probably right about that. I've removed it.
