About


An open and friendly community that supports people adopt and practice the Clojure programming language and better understand functional programming. 

The community supports those new to Clojure as well as those new to coding and all our members agree to follow a code of conduct.

Your contributions will enable the sustainability of the London Clojurians community and support our varied set of online and in-person events 
  • ClojureBridge London supports under-represented groups discover Clojure
  • re:Clojure - our free to attend annual community conference
  • monthly meetup events with a speakers from all over the world
  • subscription and admin cost such as domain name & Zoom plan for larger online meetups
Our ClojureBridge London events have helped hundreds of people from under-represented groups experience coding for the first time.  We also hear stories from people they can identify with on their experiences in starting a career in software development.  These events have helped many people start careers in the software industry as well as adding a wider range of voices and ideas to our community.

London Clojurians is a very active community with several events per month (especially outside of a pandemic). These events including technical talks, coding dojo's to practice Clojure, hack-days to collaborate on projects together and a yearly community driven conference.

The community started in London (hence the name) and this is where our in-person events take place.  Most of our events have moved online and we have regular broadcasts via YouTube, so our audience has grown to be much more world-wide.

Clojure is a great way to learn functional programming thanks to a small and well crafted syntax and focus on simplicity.  It is a valuable language for beginners and experienced developers to learn and leads to opportunities to start and evolve a career.  The community is very friendly, especially toward those new to Clojure and new to coding.

We hope you will support us and increase the communities ability to freely spread knowledge and an appreciation of Clojure.  We also invite you to share your own experiences to our community.
