Question 1

How does Inertia.js with Clojure compare to the Laravel version?

Accepted Answer

The Clojure port uses functional backend libraries like Reitit and next.jdbc instead of Laravel's PHP ecosystem, offering performance benefits from Clojure's JVM runtime but with a smaller community and fewer pre-built plugins.

Question 2

How to deploy Ping CRM Clojure to production?

Accepted Answer

The README doesn't cover deployment; you'll need to build the frontend with npm run release, run the backend with clj -M:run, and handle server setup, likely using Docker or a process manager, as it's demo-focused.

Question 3

What are the performance implications of Inertia.js with Clojure?

Accepted Answer

Inertia.js reduces client-side API calls by server-side rendering, but performance depends on Clojure backend efficiency; the demo uses modern libraries, but high-traffic apps may require additional caching or optimization.

Question 4

Can I use Tailwind CSS or other frameworks with this setup?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since the frontend uses standard npm and ClojureScript, you can integrate Tailwind or other CSS frameworks by modifying the build process, but it requires manual configuration beyond the demo's scope.

Question 5

Is there good community support for inertia-clojure?

Accepted Answer

Support is limited as it's maintained by the project author; while functional, it lacks the extensive tutorials and third-party resources of more popular Inertia.js backends, so be prepared for self-reliance.

Question 6

How to add custom authentication beyond the demo?

Accepted Answer

You'd need to extend the backend Clojure code, potentially using libraries for auth, and modify Inertia.js responses to handle login states, as the demo only includes basic credentials for testing.
