We tease apart the layers involved in serving static assets and are surprised by how many we find.
Each week, we discuss a different topic about Clojure and functional programming.
If you have a question or topic you'd like us to discuss, tweet @clojuredesign, send an email to [email protected], or join the #clojuredesign-podcast channel on the Clojurians Slack.
This week, the topic is: "Serving static assets." We tease apart the layers involved in serving static assets and are surprised by how many we find.
Selected quotes:
"You'd think that serving up plain old files would be nice and simple."
"MIME types are an explosion of complexity."
"Simplicity is the only remedy for complexity. Abstraction is not a remedy for complexity."
