Everybody who once used Java, struggled with Java’s classpath at some point during their career. You have to put all the right paths in there, the right .jar files and so on, both when compiling and running your Java project. To make this somewhat simpler you typically end up doing it either in an IDE, or using a tool like Ant or Maven. These are pretty heavy weight tools, and the latter too involve writing XML, which hardly anybody does for fun anymore.
Leiningen is a simple build tool for Clojure, based on Maven (I’m pretty sure). It offers a simple, Clojuresque way of constructing build files for your Clojure projects (which run on the JVM).

Everybody hates maven, but then every replacement project uses more or less the same concepts, in a slightly different way, and absolutely without xml...
And uses the same repositories, of course!
