MonkeyCI build scripts essentially generate jobs that are structures of maps and lists. The last expression of the script should be the list of jobs (or the job, if there is only one) to execute. Or a function that generates that list, but that is a more advanced use-case.

MonkeyCI tries to support the most popular platforms, and we plan to add more. Currently we support these git repository hosts:

Registering a new user is easy! All you need is an account on one of the supported platforms.

Why have we chosen Clojure as our main build pipeline language and not a more well-known language like Java, C# or Javascript? Well, when we started this project, the selection of the build language was the most important decision to make. There were several criteria we used to decide:
