      1 # Clojurecember
      2 
      3 In which I attempt to learn at least a little bit of Clojure with the end goal
      4 of writing a text editor, even if it's just about one standard library data
      5 structure, each day of December.
      6 
      7 ## DEC01
      8 
      9 Installed Clojure and followed the [Clojure Syntax Learning
     10 Guide](https://www.clojure.org/guides/learn/syntax).
     11 
     12 ## DEC02
     13 
     14 Continued following the Clojure Guide with
     15 [Functions](https://www.clojure.org/guides/learn/functions).
     16 
     17 ## DEC03
     18 
     19 Finished up with Functions in Clojure and moved on to
     20 [Sequential](https://www.clojure.org/guides/learn/sequential_colls) and
     21 [Hashed](https://www.clojure.org/guides/learn/hashed_colls) collections.
     22 
     23 ## DEC04
     24 
     25 Moved onto learning Clojure [Flow
     26 Control](https://www.clojure.org/guides/learn/flow) and
     27 [Namespaces](https://www.clojure.org/guides/learn/namespaces) which finishes
     28 off learning the basics of Clojure.
     29 
     30 ## DEC05
     31 
     32 Installed [leiningen](https://codeberg.org/leiningen/leiningen) which is
     33 apparently Clojure's version of `pip`, `npm`, etc. Created a new project which
     34 uses [Seesaw](https://github.com/clj-commons/seesaw/) and made a basic program
     35 that spawns a window that lets you type text in.
     36 
     37 ## DEC06
     38 
     39 Added a menu bar with some basic actions (File -> [New, Open, Save, Quit]),
     40 (Edit -> [Copy, Cut, Paste]), and (Help -> [About]) to the text editor.
     41 
     42 ## DEC07
     43 
     44 Improved the save features of the text editor: added a Save As and made the New
     45 option make an entirely new file, instead of just blanking the text area. Also
     46 added some labels for the current file and some feedback when a file was saved,
     47 opened, etc.
     48 
     49 ## DEC21
     50 
     51 Played around with trying to get a line count side-bar thing (like vim's `numbers`).
     52 
     53 ## DEC22
     54 
     55 Made progress on the line count functionality, decided that it was not really possible or would be too awkward with (how I understand this) GUI framework. What kind of text editor needs a line count anyways?
