In CLJS, resolve is a macro that accepts a quoted symbol. I.e. something like (resolve 'xxx) or (resolve (quote xxx)).

Depending on what you're trying to achieve, there might be other solutions.

I'm trying to receive a string of a fully-qualified symbol and resolve it at runtime. If I understand correctly the issue here is "at runtime". I'm guessing the reason resolve is a macro is to resolve the symbol at compile time...

Indeed. An alternative would be to have an explicit registry of all symbols that are intended to be resolvable.

> I'm expected to generate the entire HTML in CLJS That's not the case at all. The way you use CLJS is exactly the same way you'd use e.g. TS or plain JS that requires some preprocessing. There's a build step, and then there's execution step. The latter can be done via embedding on a web page or via some other means. And the build step can also be omitted with e.g. https://github.com/babashka/scittle

Thanks, scittle looks like it could be pretty useful in its own right

And I had an error in my code. All working now, thanks

@UFTRLDZEW thanks, this author gets it! 🙂 I'll give this one a close read
