This is pretty cool! I do urge you to take your domain name versus https://athensresearch.github.io/athens/

Could you talk about the clojure part of it? how instrumental was it to build Athens Research. could you have built it on Electron + Typescript for example




We have athensresearch.org and athens-research.com, neither of which I love.

We actually do use Electron! ClojureScript compiles to JS at the end of the day.

Ultimately Clojure is pretty necessary to use our database, Datascript, a graph db with its own data query language, Datalog. Datalog is a descendant of prolog, and makes recursive/reverse queries trivially easy.


athens.dev is available! (.dev and .app tld are run by Google)
