I'd recommend getting shadow-cljs setup to run on node https://shadow-cljs.github.io/docs/UsersGuide.html#target-node

Hey thanks for this. I hadn't heard of shadow-cljs, and I'm definitely looking into it now

oh, I was hoping that there would be some kind of hook or so. Then I dont get why I see the js files inside the jar 😕

probably because they are on class path, so they are also packaged with everything else

ah ok. Thanks for the info 🙂

mmmm it seems that this is not entirely correct. After creating a deps.cljs file with the duplicate info on it. The compiler started complaining about "Duplicate module path after resolving: .../parcera/src/javascript/clojure.reader.bundle.js", . It seems that if I have a deps.cljs file I dont need to put the info on figwheel

I think it depends on how you are compiling the project. deps.cljs is what ClojureScript compiler consumes, but Figwheel is a separate tooling, maybe Figwheel is reading both files, I dunno.

> but Figwheel is a separate tooling, maybe Figwheel is reading both files, I dunno. yeah I guess that this is what is happening since figwheel still work even with that info “missing” i.e. on the deps.cljs file

I haven't used this and have no experience with Material UI, but I saw this a while back, might be of interest to you: https://github.com/arttuka/reagent-material-ui

Submitting, then answering, the question on http://ask.clojure.org is probably very welcome, if anyone would like to do so.

You can always checkout this front end specific guide https://betweentwoparens.com/start-a-clojurescript-app-from-scratch - The great thing about ClojureScript is that if you are familiar with front end development most things are 1:1. One of the initial hurdles is just starting a project. For examples of simple CLJS apps: https://github.com/tkjone/clojurescript-30

As for learning the language, the best resources are often actually Clojure resources because both languages are so close to one another.

And if your looking for information on Clojure Text Editors there is a post in the above blog and this video series. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfBUN43AQoyGiQxmCIDZe2w

thanks a ton! i just opened all those links in new windows... reading now.

Here's a video resource you might find helpful : https://www.jacekschae.com/learn-reagent-free

I've also a starter that should have a familiar structure if you come from a JS background

https://github.com/filipesilva/create-cljs-app

it's meant to be similar to create-react-app

If you want to try Clojure(Script) in a local turnkey setting take a look at this: https://github.com/jsa-aerial/saite#uberjar

It is mostly intended as a turnkey system for data science types needing to explore datasets and create visualization documents, but I've been told by more than a few that it could be a great intro system for new users (of Clj(Cljs)), such as Clojure Bridge.

All you need is Java8 (9+ breaks the dynamic dependency resolver - can be fixed but for now low priority). Then just grab the jar and off you go.

You can write code that you can then run in Clojure (server), ClojureScript (client) or even mix them together.

This creates a deps project, just uses Leiningen as a way to scaffold it, for reference.
