here's sample of clojure libraries. They are dependencies of the gorilla-repl. [see Interactive Clojure Notebook: gorilla-repl]

Libs for Server

ring → Essential web app lib. Abstraction of HTTP. Like python's WSGI and Ruby's Rack. https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring

http-kit → ring-compatible minimal HTTP client and server. http://http-kit.org/

ring-json → Standard Ring middleware functions for JSON requests/responses https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring-json

Compojure → routing lib for Ring that allows web applications to be composed of small, independent parts. https://github.com/weavejester/compojure

general web related libs

cheshire → JSON encode/decode. https://github.com/dakrone/cheshire

base64 encode/decode https://github.com/clojure/data.codec

nrepl → clojure network repl. Eval clojure code over network. https://github.com/clojure/tools.nrepl

Database

Carmine → A Clojure Redis client and message queue https://github.com/ptaoussanis/carmine

front end, JavaScript, ClojureScript

Reagent: Minimalistic React for ClojureScript http://reagent-project.github.io/

not sure about the following. Leaving them here for now.

Simple Logging Facade for Java (SLF4J) → The Simple Logging Facade for Java (SLF4J) serves as a simple facade or abstraction for various logging frameworks (example: java.util.logging, logback, log4j) allowing the end user to plug in the desired logging framework at deployment time. http://www.slf4j.org/
