That's cool!! Had a nag for learning lisp/lisp-likes for a while now. My favorite part is the absence of concurrent problems due to immutability.

- fulafel 7y agoReact has its root in the FP model, and the React ClojureScript binding (Reagent) works really well with it. (reference: "I had implemented several iterations of what eventually became React, in a few languages - one of the first explorations began as a rough implementation of the reconciler and component model in [the functional language] Standard ML (CreateClass was a "module function"). This was really great because SML embraces immutability by default which is natural when building React style components.
