## AI overview

A guided tour of libraries from the Clojure team that are distributed separately from Clojure and can be considered part of its standard library. It explains Clojure's default utilities, including data handling, I/O, string operations, pretty-printing, sets, templates, testing, and tree-walking.

## Source excerpt
