Moving from bad to good ClojureScript and React by Myron
Mavko for KyivClojure #7, 2015
About me ๏ Myron Mavko ๏ Software engineer at Attendify.com
๏ Years of JS, jQuery, Backbone, ExtJS and all the classics ๏ Finally moving to something that works!
Agenda ๏ Product overview ๏ What it was like: Knockout,
jQuery, Backbone ๏ What it became like: ClojureScript, React ๏ React: what is it all about? ๏ Overview of ClojureScript React wrappers
Attendify Product Overview
Attendify ‣ Mobile applications builder ‣ Thousands of mobile apps
‣ Private social networks in each application ‣ Real-time analytic ‣ Sponsored Posts (ads) ‣ EventWall for screen projection
Attendify Hub
Social
Multi-Event App
What it was like: Knockout, jQuery, Backbone
JS dev diary ๏ Exceptions you can’t understand ๏ Debugging
๏ Lack of basic means ๏ Remembering about all known JS pitfalls ๏ Remembering about framework specific pitfalls
Knockout.js ๏ Two-way bindings ๏ Templates / Composability ๏ Performance!
Backbone.js+ ๏ Manual memory management ๏ Manual DOM-events management ๏
Turning project into a mess ๏ Performance!
What it became like: ClojureScript, React
Our experience ๏ Being early adopters of ClojureScript (1.5+ years)
๏ Being early adopters of React (1.5+ years) ๏ Being early adopters of React cljs wrappers ๏ Watching it all evolves
CLJS dev diary ๏ Exceptions and errors are easy to
understand ๏ No reason for debugging ๏ No JS with its pitfalls and tons of libraries ๏ Power of Clojure at your fingertips ๏ core.async ๏ Incredibly fast incremental builds (+ live reloading)

ClojureScript React wrappers
Acknowledged ones ๏ Om ๏ Quiescent ๏ Reagent ๏ Rum
Om
Om ✓ Industry pioneer ✓ Most widespread ✗ Overcomplicated ✗
Cursors for us turned out to be a misconception that leads to unjustified coherence between UI structure and app state structure
Quiescent
Quiescent ✓ Dead simple ✗ Inability to set component react-key
(fixed in upcoming 0.2.0 version)
Reagent
Reagent ✓ Dead simple ✗ Ratoms is real magic. Easy
to loose control.
Rum /static
Rum /reactive
Rum ✓ Most flexible concept ✓ Source code easy to
understand (comparing to Om) ✗ Very young project ✗ Complex cases (like mixin dependencies) need investigation
