ClojureScript + React

Chris Oakman will be giving a talk on how to use React from ClojureScript.

ClojureScript is a powerful, stable, functional language that compiles to JavaScript. It has unique strengths that are well-suited to building applications using React:

• native state management

• persistent data structures

• flexible syntax (ie: no JSX headache)

• and much more!

In this talk I will give a brief overview of ClojureScript and React, then we will dive straight into building an application using the Rum library.

No prior ClojureScript or React experience is required for this talk.

Estimate time: 1.5 hours
