Happy new year!

First all, as this is the last day of 2023, I wish you all a happy new year. Hopefully many goods things may happen in the Clojure ecosystem. I'm grateful many of you have sponsored my work in 2023!

Sponsors

I'd like to thank all the sponsors and contributors that make this work possible. Without you, the below projects would not be as mature or wouldn't exist or be maintained at all. Open the details section for more info.
