This is really awesome, thanks for building it. I was just working on a toy clojurescript project yesterday and while clojuredocs is very useful it's sad it hasn't been updated in forever. I've found examples to be incredibly helpful in composing functional-style code. For instance, compare assoc: http://clojure.github.io/clojure/clojure.core-api.html#cloju... and http://grimoire.arrdem.com/1.6.0/clojure.core/assoc/.

The architecture choice OP made is clever - a completely static page linking to github for the CMS part. Would you consider writing a server-backed version at some point in the future? Clojuredocs was originally written in rails and is being re-written in clojure, but that's going slowly. I would absolutely love to see a well-written clojure backend for this type of site as a reference. I've been really enjoying using clojure for standalone things, but I can't yet imagine how I'd build a web server with all the production features something like rails gives you ootb (asset compilation, csrf, sessions, db connections, orm, testing w. transaction-based fixtures, etc).

Now if I could just integrate this with dash (http://kapeli.com/dash)!
