We don't have official support (yet!) but I just published a Clojure version of the standard DBOS Starter app. Just the ticket for any other developers looking to add durable execution to their Clojure app18 May 2026 18:08 +0000at://did:plc:j3k5gtjrrg5wicxcrue54xym/app.bsky.feed.post/3mm5hsz5lpc2ohttps://blacksky.community/profile/devhawk.net/post/3ml7ehy3oys2sAs a newcomer to the Java ecosystem, I had no idea how much Spring Boot brings to the table in terms of developer experience.

It's been about three months since our last release. Doesn't seem like much time, but when I look over the release notes...We sure got a lot of stuff done.
