A simple fullstack web framework for clojure

HellHound

IMPORTANT NOTE: This software is not ready to use yet. It's under heavy development and reaches the alpha stage pretty soon. If you like to be part of this process please leave us a message.

Goals

HellHound is a fullstack Clojure/ClojureScript framework for creating async distributed web applications suitbale for stream processing. Basically HellHound is a set of smaller tools to create such systems.

The goal is to create a tool which allows developers to focus on their business logic while it takes care of different aspect of a distributed software in an opinionated way.

Server Side

Here is a breif description about the server side application, its requirements and design.

Requirements

The server side application should be:

• Stateless
• Scalable
• Fault tolarance
• Async
• Extendable

Design

Each HellHound application should have a system which is a map of components with possible workflows and a supervisor. Basically supervisor is in charge of starting and stopping the system and dealing with any problem with the system. For example it should be able to automatically restart a component which is in a bad state.

Each component has a start and stop function with some input and an output. A workflows simply describe data workflow in the component pipeline.
