Additionally, a common use case for AJAX in ClojureScript is fetching JSON and converting it into ClojureScript's persistent data structures. transit-cljs is the best way to do this, being significantly faster than js->clj.
It would be nice to have a small library to wrap Google Closure AJAX + transit-cljs into a small interface similar to jQuery's excellent ajax method.

AJAX is a common activity in web development. The Google Closure Library has a library for handling AJAX, but the API is verbose and not well-suited to ClojureScript's functional style.
