I would like to handle a Server Sent Events stream in Clojure.
Does anyone know a small client library to just do that please ?

I was expecting to find something like https://github.com/stalefruits/gniazdo, which is for Websockets, but for SSE.

I could not find anything though and the only lib that may have been a good candidate is not maintained anymore https://github.com/clojurewerkz/ssese

thanks in advance ...

Here is a highly voted comparison on StackOverflow between Server Sent Events and WebSockets (my favorite):

  WebSockets vs. Server-Sent events/EventSource

And here is a nice comparison from IBM (2017):
