[2016-03-02 Wed 19:33] speaker: Jethro Kuan event: ClojureSG meetup

• lein is for the general case
• plugins are not composable
• boot is a library to create a build script
• task ~ stateful transducer
• task is function that takes a next-handler and return a handler
• handler takes in a fileset, an immutable value, and produce a new fileset
• built-in watch sub command
• pods are separate clojure runtimes on the same jvm
• lein uses separate jvms for your app
• boot can load in dependencies dynamically
