"Clojure in Product. Would you do it again?" podcast, Ep. 12, with Marcin Maicki, Dentons

Hi all,

We recently released a conversation with Marcin Maicki, who’s been running Clojure at Dentons (global law firm) for 9 years – surrounded by C# and TypeScript.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like being the only functional language in a large enterprise stack, this one’s for you:

What we covered:

  • Integration realities when you’re the odd stack out

  • How security and compliance audits shape your architecture choices

  • Keeping a decade-old codebase maintainable (and teaching new people to work with it)

  • When choosing Clojure is smart - and when it complicates things

Listen here:

https://www.freshcodeit.com/podcast/it-allows-a-small-team-to-achieve-really-great-goals

Curious to hear your own “non-standard stack” war stories if you’ve got them.
