ClojureScript/React overview

Seberius commented 8 years ago

I would be willing to do a presentation on front end ClojureScript frameworks and their usage of React as the "view". It would cover the Om.Next graph-query-view and re-frame/reagent "data driven loop" implementations, along with a basic overview of React and its place in vanilla javascript.

Awesome idea, is it okay to move this to Reno.js? Seems focused enough on js to make sense.

Seberius commented 8 years ago

Sure, though I have never been to the meeting. I thought I would change the focus from ClojureScript (CLJS) to React after talking to a few people about Om at the last meeting and the general interest in React itself. The talk would cover:

An intro to React, its role as the view and why it won (maybe) the front-end wars.
React + Flux, a state management pattern in JS, covers manipulating DOM changes, etc. There was interest in this in particular. (example code)
Reagent + re-frame, a CLJS React wrapper and state management framework, covers the single point of truth (state), dispatch, and query pattern concepts (example code)
Om Next, a CLJS React framework, covers using queries and graphs, along with a look at property based testing. (example code)

Fantastic! Super stoked to hear about these things. How about May 10?

That works.

Thanks, @Seberius for this great talk at Reno.js 👍
