Notes from one user:

• The version of Clojure I have is different from the one referenced in the tutorial's project.clj file. I had to take care that the version I needed was referenced in the file.
• I didn't realize I had to name the lein project "sketch"
• I didn't realize I had to copy the sketch subdirectory into the clj subdirectory

Need to update files and instructions to improve these

If you are arriving at this project or quil in 2022 (with recent versions of JDK and macOS), just following the docs isn't enough to get up and running. One has to work around the Java/Processing/macOS incompatibilities as discussed here and here.

My preferred workaround is a variation of this one.

I'm wondering: is it appropriate for a downstream project such as this one to advise on navigating upstream issues? If so, how opinionated should they be?

Hey I ported most of the easing functions from easings.net over at ai/easings.net to clojure, just using vanilla java.lang.Math. More than happy to donate the namespace here, if you'd like.

Check it out: sdedovic/easings-clj

On clojure 1.11.1, when i require genartlib.random, i get this error:

Execution error (IllegalAccessError) at genartlib.random/loading (random.clj:1).
abs does not exist
Execution error (NoClassDefFoundError) at java.lang.Class/forName0 (Class.java:-2).
Could not initialize class genartlib.random__init

When i try it with clojure 1.11.1, and i use the same version of quil (3.1.0) and quil.core/abs is present and working. But genartlib.random can't be loaded.

When i matched the clojure version with the version required in genartlib (1.10.1) atm, it works! 🎉

It's ok for me to use clojure 1.10.1, but this could possibly easily be fixed. I'll have a look into it when i have more time.

hello @thobbs ! this a very useful set of tools and/or shortcuts. I work in Java and I would like to port your library, is that ok?
