Modular provides a meta-architecture for Clojure projects, based on Stuart Sierra's component library.
Component dependencies form directed acyclic graphs. Two components in a dependency relationship are coupled using Clojure protocols.
Besides some simple utility functions, modular is defined by a number of pre-built components which can be composed with custom components to form application systems.
Modular is an approach, rather than a library or framework.
Benefits include :-
- Components can be reasoned about in their own terms independently from the system
- Component re-use
- Architectural consistency
- Stronger cohesion within parts, weaker coupling between parts
