Optimizing Clojure Projects

Overview/Description
Clojure includes a number of features that enable you to optimize your applications. In this course you'll learn about optimization of Clojure projects with multimethods and hierarchies, parallelism, and macros. You'll also learn about profiling and unit testing of Clojure applications.

Target Audience
