Lambda Island Open Source is a collection of Clojure/ClojureScript libraries and tools created by the same people who brought you Lambda Island Education.
Look at the RELEASES file to see what we've been up to.
Kaocha is our flagship project, a test runner for the future. Easy to use, rich in features, extensible, and built with tooling in mind.
Kaocha is actually a collection of projects, which includes kaocha-cljs, kaocha-junit-xml, kaocha-cloverage, kaocha-cucumber, and kaocha-boot.
Deep-diff is our most downloaded project, it compares Clojure data structures and gives an easy to scan visual overview of the differences. This is a spin-off from Kaocha, where it is used to provide clearer error messages when tests fail.

Regal is Clojure's ultimate regular expression library. It provides a Hiccup-like syntax for regular expression, and eases the burden of writing cross-platform code. With its support for string generation it pairs wonderfully with generative testing, and its parser can be used to manipulate regular expressions as data, and to convert between Java and JavaScript regexes.
A idiomatic and cross-platform URI library. RFC-compliant to the dot, it also contains helpers for normalization, and for manipulating query strings.
A ClojureScript logging library based on goog.log, inspired by pedestal.log.
It does syntax highlighting, plays well with cljs-devtools, and allows tweaking
the log level per namespace.
Convert ANSI escape codes (the ones used to provide color in terminal applications), and convert to Hiccup. Valuable if you're putting anything Terminal-based onto the web.

A browser-based ClojureScript test runner with a delightful UI, built with auto-reload workflows in mind.
Funnel is a WebSocket message relay. It accepts connections from multiple clients, and then acts as a go-between, funneling messages between them, with flexible mechanisms for setting up message routing. It also provides discoverability, so clients can find out who is there to talk to.

Read/write newline-separated EDN files.

An idiomatic, promises-based wrapped for JavaScript's fetch.

Generated complex graphs of entities with Specmonstah and Malli.

Build rich terminal applications with Hiccup. An ongoing research project.

Visualize Clojure.zip zippers with graphviz.
We have a style guide that applies to all of our projects.
Our preferred open source/free software license is the Mozilla Public License v2.0 (a less intrusive copyleft license), although some of our projects still use the Eclipse Public License.
We prefer Clojure CLI over Leiningen, although some projects may still use
project.clj instead of deps.edn.
We like to run our tests through Kaocha on CircleCI.
All our projects are covered by the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct.
A code of conduct is important to set a baseline for how we expect people to behave, however we aspire to go above and beyond that. On the internet people don't see your face, they don't hear your tone of voice. What was intended as simply a brief response can easily be construed as rude or unhelpful.
To counter this it is good to be a little "extra" in your communication. Say "please" and "thank you", be clear and explicit, explain your reasoning, use emoji and animated gifs. Seriously we love gifs! (jifs?)
Particating in open source can be daunting, overwhelming, and scary. Make it clear that people are welcome, that their concerns are valid, and that they have a right to contribute.
We aspire to have "first-timers only" issues on every project that is under active development. These are issues that have it spelled out in very fine detail what needs to happen. These issues are only open to people who have not contributed to Lambda Island projects before.
