matchcolor

A server-side Node.js app written in ClojureScript to find the match or the closest match to a hexcolor.

Why?

This was mainly an experiment in developing a simple web application in ClojureScript, using ClojureScript as the server-side language and Node.js as the runtime.

It uses express, hiccups for views, logfmt for logging, and garden for the hex<->rgb conversions it provides.

The massive color lists comes from Wikipedia.

Layout is one of the Bootstrap examples.

Building and Running

1. lein deps
2. lein cljsbuild once
3. npm install
4. cd target && node cljsbuild-main.js

The app will be accessible on port 3000.

Deployment

It's already setup for deployment to heroku. Move the compiled cljsbuild-main.js to deploy and then push to heroku.
