With the release of tools.deps we can now run Clojure code without the additional complexity of tools like Boot and/or Leiningen.
This repo contains a single Clojure file that makes use of the excellent Aleph to send an HTTPS request to my favourite website.
git clone https://github.com/jcf/minimal-clojure-example
cd minimal-clojure-example
clj -m helloYou should see a pretty-printed HTTP response something like this:
