Connecting to Databases with next.jdbc
Learn to establish database connections and execute SQL queries using the `next.jdbc` library.
Database Access in Clojure
Welcome to connecting Clojure with databases! Most real-world applications need to store and retrieve data, and databases are central to this.
In this lesson, you'll learn how to use next.jdbc, Clojure's popular library, to interact with various databases.

- It simplifies database operations.
- It provides a clean, functional interface.
- It's fast and efficient.
- It supports a wide range of databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, H2, SQLite, etc.).
