## What is [meta]? ##
[meta] is a stack for building software using Clojure(Script).
## Why [meta]? ##
We built [meta] out of the idea that a single Open Source package could be used to build any tech startup. We named it [meta] as a reminder that software takes many forms and like ideas, should continuously evolve. [meta] is an attempt at building the quickest path from an idea to a startup.
Things [meta] has been used for:
- Application Prototyping
- Enterprise Applications
## When should I use [meta]? ##
[Always.](https://twitter.com/degree9io/status/848972601091346433)
***
## [meta] Internals ##
[meta] is written in Clojure(Script) and built using:
- [Boot][1] - Build tooling for Clojure.
- [Hoplon][2] - ClojureScript Web Framework.
- [Feathers.js][3] - An open source REST and realtime API layer for modern applications.
- [Node.js][4] - JavaScript runtime built on Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine.
- [Electron][5] - Build cross platform desktop apps with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
- [Atom][6] - A hackable text editor for the 21st Century.

## Using [meta] ... with Boot ##
[![Boot][24]][1] [![Wiki][34]][35]
[meta] is powered by Boot, an environment for building applications using clojure.
__Generate an empty project:__
> $ boot -d degree9/meta generate --name my-app
__Start a development workflow:__
> $ boot develop
Thanks to Boot, [meta] is built with itself.
- [boot-exec][15] - Boot-clj external process execution using Apache Commons Exec.
- [boot-semver][17] - Semantic Versioning for boot projects.
- [boot-semgit][18] - Semantic Git access from boot tasks.
- [boot-welcome][36] - ASCII art banners with boot-clj.

## ClojureScript in the Browser ... with Hoplon ##
[![Hoplon][23]][2]
We believe in building universal technologies and the web is the most accessible platform available. [meta] builds upon Hoplon to provide abstractions for the DOM.
```clojure
(page "index.html")
(html
(head
(title "[meta]"))
(body
(p "Hello!")))
```
- [material-hl][32] - Material Design Components for Hoplon
- [uikit-hl][uikit-hl] - UIkit v3 Components for Hoplon

[](https://clojars.org/degree9/uikit-hl)
***
## Realtime Communication ... with Feathers.js ##
[![Feathers][31]][3]
[meta] provides both REST and Realtime communication via FeatherScript, a wrapper around Feathers.js implemented in ClojureScript. Feathers enables event-based communication between clients and servers and other API's including persistent data stores.
- [featherscript][20] - A feathers.js wrapper for ClojureScript.
[](https://clojars.org/degree9/featherscript)
***
## ClojureScript on the Server ... with Node.js ##
[![Node][29]][4]
[meta] is built entirely out of Clojure(Script) including the backend. This means compiling to JavaScript and running on Node.js.
- [boot-nodejs][16] - Node.js tasks for boot-clj.
- [boot-npm][19] - Node Package Manager (NPM) wrapper task for boot-clj.
- [nodejs-cljs][21] - CLJS bindings for the Node.js API.

[](https://clojars.org/degree9/boot-npm)
[](https://clojars.org/degree9/nodejs-cljs)
***
## ClojureScript on the Client ... with Electron ##
[![Electron][30]][5]
[meta] can package Client/Server applications with Electron. Building cross-platform Clojure(Script) applications.
- [electron-cljs][22] - Electron bindings for CLJS.
- [boot-electron][33] - Electron tasks for boot-clj.
[](https://clojars.org/degree9/electron-cljs)
[](https://clojars.org/degree9/boot-electron)
***
## Developed ... with Atom ##
[![Atom][25]][26]
[meta] is being cultivated within Atom, a hackable text editor
for the 21st Century.
- [proto-repl][28] - A Clojure Development Environment package for Atom.
[](https://clojars.org/proto-repl)
***
## Containerization ... with Docker ##
[meta] server applications can be containerized for scalability through docker.
- [boot-docker][27] - Docker wrapper for boot-clj.
