re-frame is a framework for building Modern Web Apps in ClojureScript. It leverages React, via Reagent.
re-frame was released in early 2015, and has since been successfully used by many companies and individuals to build complex apps, many running beyond 40K lines of ClojureScript.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Data-oriented, functional design.
- Advanced enough to have outlasted three generations of JavaScript technical churn.
- Although re-frame leverages React (via Reagent), it only needs React to be the V in MVC, and no more.
- Focus on developer productivity:
- Fewer lines of code.
- Hot code reloading.
- A simple dynamic model.
- Managed effects, including state.
- Pure functions.
- Variously declarative.
- Mature and stable.
