Helping voters with Pedestal, Datomic, Om and core.async
summary
Shows how Democracy Works built a system that tracks mail-in ballot status using Clojure technologies: a Pedestal-based web front end, Datomic for data storage, Om for the UI, and core.async for asynchronous workflows. The presenters will live-code four small independent projects, starting from the front end and moving to the back end, including FTP ingestion of postal service data and continuous user updates, and will introduce a couple of open-source libraries they released to support the work.
