Gershwin - Stack-based, Concatenative Clojure

Explore the Gershwin programming language in this 37-minute conference talk from Strange Loop 2013. Dive into the world of stack-based, concatenative programming with a Clojure runtime targeting the JVM. Learn how Gershwin fuses Clojure's data structures, namespaces, and concurrency semantics with an API inspired by the Factor language. Discover the unique features of stack-based languages, including composition by code concatenation, point-free expressions, and data-flow combinators. Follow along as the speaker demonstrates core Gershwin concepts through interactive REPL development, function definition, quotations, Clojure interoperability, code organization, and project building. Gain insights into the implementation of Gershwin and its relationship to Clojure and Factor, while exploring the potential of leveraging the Clojure/JVM ecosystem in a concatenative programming paradigm.
