Neo4j Community Driver for Clojure Developers
If you are a Clojure developer, this guide provides an overview of options for connecting to Neo4j. While this guide is not comprehensive it will introduce the different drivers and link to the relevant resources.
You should be familiar with graph database concepts and the property graph model. You should have created an Neo4j AuraDB cloud instance, or installed Neo4j locally

Neo4j Community Drivers
Members of the each programming language community have invested a lot of time and love to develop each one of the community drivers for Neo4j, so if you use any one of them, please provide feedback to the authors.
The community drivers have been graciously contributed by the Neo4j community. Many of them are fully featured and well-maintained, but some may not be. Neo4j does not take any responsibility for their usability. |
Neo4j Clojure Drivers
Clojure drivers either support Neo4j embedded on the JVM or use Neo4j Server via its HTTP or Bolt APIs.
Members of the Clojure community have invested a lot of time and love to develop all these drivers, so if you use them please provide feedback to the authors.
The Example Project
The Neo4j example project is a small, one page webapp for the movies database built into the Neo4j tutorial. The front-end page is the same for all drivers: movie search, movie details, and a graph visualization of actors and movies. Each backend implementation shows you how to connect to Neo4j from each of the different languages and drivers.
You can learn more about our small, consistent example project across many different language drivers here. You will find the implementations for all drivers as individual GitHub repositories, which you can clone and deploy directly.
Neo4j-clj
Clojure bindings for Bolt / the Java Neo4j driver, complete with Joplin support for managing database migrations.
