Interacting with and managing data is an important aspect of Clojure applications. This course covers working with data in Clojure, including using primitive types and data collections. You'll also learn about state management with Clojure.

Collections
- use lists in Clojure
- use vectors in Clojure
- use maps in Clojure
- use sets in Clojure
Sequences
- construct sequences in Clojure
- use lazy sequences in Clojure
- work with Clojure sequence APIs
Metadata
- read and write Clojure metadata
- work with Clojure metadata
Refs and State Management
- understand how state management is implemented in Clojure
- create and access refs in Clojure
- update refs in Clojure
Atoms, Agents, and State
- use atoms in Clojure
- create and update agents in Clojure
- handle agent errors in Clojure
- work with agents synchronously in Clojure

Vars and State Management
- use thread-local var bindings to change state in Clojure
Validators, Watchers, and State
