How are big clojure projects organized?

class, clojure, file, methods, namespaces

Solution

It is roughly:

namespace > files > vars 

Note that:

- Namespaces are frequently defined in a single file, but don't have to be (you can use multiple files to define a namespace)

- vars can contain anything: functions, Java objects, data, macros etc. Most of the time, they will be either functions or top-level data literals

- Namespaces are dynamic: they can be modified at runtime. This gives you quite a lot of flexibility to organise your code in different ways if you want to (you can generate and populate your namespaces programatically for example)
