Funny way of brainstorming

#About

This is a simple app which allows you to perform a brain storming with your remote friends in funny way.

It is my first app written in Clojure and Backbone.js so do not expect too much. It is only prototype. However, it works and you can use it as an example.

#Deploying

I use for deploy https://cloudbees.com

To create war file (you should have leiningen installed https://github.com/technomancy/leiningen):

cd backend
lein deps
lein ring uberwar

Your war file should be ready to deploy!

#Running localy

cd backend
lein deps
lein ring server

#Developing

Here we use sprockets https://github.com/sstephenson/sprockets to compile assets. You need to start 2 servers.

First one, rack, requires ruby (I tested it with 1.9.3) and following gems coffee-script, haml, sass, sprockets, rack.

You can install them using:

gem install coffee-script haml sass sprockets rack

You will also need some environment (like node.js) to execute standalone JavaScript code.

To start server

rackup

It will serve your assets and proxy all requests to the second backend server. To start backend server:

cd backend
lein deps
lein ring server

To run frontend tests go to http://localhost:9292/SpecRunner.html in your browser.

To run backend tests:

cd backend
lein test
