The Clojure Style Guide is a community-maintained reference for writing consistent and maintainable Clojure code. Its recommendations are based on real-world usage, community feedback, and established Clojure programming resources. The guide covers source layout, indentation, naming, namespaces, collections, functions, idioms, metadata, testing, and other language conventions. Examples contrast preferred and discouraged styles so recommendations are easy to apply. Rationales are included for many rules instead of presenting them as unexplained mandates. The document evolves as language practices change and also points developers toward compatible formatting tools such as cljfmt, cljstyle, and zprint.
