TL;DR

Money, Money, Money

Many ClojureWerkz projects take advantage of existing mature JVM libraries. Today we introduce another library to this club: Money. Money is a very thin layer on top of Joda Money, an excellent money library from the creator of Joda Time.

What’s In The Box

• Operations on monetary amounts (add, substract, multiply, divide, negate, etc)

• Cheshire integration
• Monger integration
