Dustin, Leo, and the rest of Electric team are brilliant, borderline geniuses.
You can do absolutely magical interactive apps with Electric. However, I think, the catch is that the learning curve of Missionary and Electric is _very_ steep, and you have to understand the concepts pretty deeply in order to successfully debug (hence, to make) your code. And it is worth it, in my opinion — the concepts used are beautiful in a mathematical way and fit together pretty well.
- dustingetz 2y agoThanks! We hope the v3 learning curve will be a lot better; v2 has a bunch of non-obvious semantics that you just had to learn (as described in [1]) – which are now fixed in v3. But you're right, Electric is for experts, we built it for ourselves — in order to meet the performance and scalability requirements of our upcoming product Hyperfiddle (low-code declarative infrastructure for UI, or more simply, a CRUD Spreadsheet). https://www.hyperfiddle.net/ https://www.hyperfiddle.net/ [1] https://hyperfiddle-docs.notion.site/Electric-Clojure-v3-teaser-improved-transfer-semantics-2024-735b10c3a0dc424e93e060a0a3e80226 https://hyperfiddle-docs.notion.site/Electric-Clojure-v3-tea...
