Show HN: I built a self-hosted course platform in Clojure

1 day ago (clojure.stream)

Hey HN — I'm Jacek. I've been teaching Clojure through video courses (Reagent, Re-frame, Reitit, Datomic, Pedestal) for a few years, hosted on Podia.

I finally got around to building my own platform. It's Clojure on the backend, self-hosted, and gave me the chance to drop prices significantly since there's no platform cut anymore.

The migration from Podia is complete — all user accounts, subscriptions, and purchases carried over. Existing subscribers had their prices automatically lowered.

Happy to talk about the stack, the migration process, or the courses themselves.

  • Could you tell more about the stack? And also, you clearly know your way around it, so would be curious to hear your thoughts about the language itself - what do you like about it?

Is the source code available? You mentioned it being self hosted, thought I might be able to find it on GitHub but didn't see it linked anywhere.
