about to kick off a clojurescript project for a prototype UI for a project at work!

skelter17:01:28

Now thinking about om vs reagent. Have no idea about rum

norman17:01:43

I recommend against om

norman17:01:21

om isn’t supported and om.next may be genius but I just can’t figure it out

norman17:01:55

@dar is (or will soon be) using rum for something

norman17:01:04

reagent might be the safest choice

skelter17:01:24

thanks, Norman

clojuregeek17:01:55

Yeah reagent !!

when it comes to frontend frameworks, clojurescript community creates at least 5 wrappers for every js framework that comes out

gdeer8119:01:39

so you definitely have options

clojuregeek19:01:29

yet .. then we tried to make another web framework (arachne) people have to have fits on “why need another framework? we have luminus”

gdeer8119:01:49

Nobody remembers Caribou, I think it was supposed to be like Rails with the way it had the database stuff kinda done for you and an admin interface to let your users add new things themself

gdeer8119:01:44

I abused that model to let my users manage product data for their site. They never paid me so I burned it all to the ground anyway, but it was interesting

gdeer8119:01:17

Speaking of Arachne, today was supposed to be the alpha release date

gdeer8119:01:20

@clojuregeek aren't you on the steering group?

norman19:01:08

Yes, and she’s giving us a talk on it next month.

norman20:01:22

I don’t really care for luminus. I’m curious what arachne will bring to the table. The only thing that has troubled me is that I heard somewhere that it might be resurrecting some pedestel things. That’s not a direction I want to go, but I’m certainly willing to take a look when there’s something to see.

gdeer8120:01:52

I didn't get too familiar with pedestal so I'm not sure what interceptors are but it sounds like request/response wrapping to me

gdeer8120:01:25

that's the only time I heard Luke mention pedestal in the kickstarter presentation
