In my Clojure projects, the util-namespace is typically a drawer where helper-functions and macros end up that are A) very project-specific or that B) I like to think of as generically applicable.
That italicised part is important as not a lot of these helpers actually transfer to other projects.
But those that do (the "frequent flyers"), are the ones that I miss the instant I start a new project with a blank util-slate.

This article describes two such helpers that I keep copying from project to project: when-seq and whenp.
Let's dive in!

Tags: #Clojure, #regex

The previous article, "A better regex experience", discussed some ways to make regular expressions more readable, namely commenting and using named capturing groups.

I've been using Polar.sh now for over a month and I really like it so far.
As I expect to be publishing many more articles on a wide variety of topics, I'd thought it would be handy to tag them and allow readers to find articles on related topics. And so the idea of tagging articles with custom html-comments was born.
This article explains how to tag articles yourself and get a nice tag overview page like this one.

It's just 3 straightforward steps. Let's go 🚀.
