New lisper here. For a solo dev trying to choose between fulcro and biff. Any advice you’d offer to them to help make the right choice?
It depends on what you want to build. Fulcro is a client application library. Biff is more like a server-side template with some utility functions.
Aslo question of how much experience you have with cljs and frontend dev. If not that much then Biff might be a much easier choice. I guess @UQ5QFFX54 could tell you how it is for a new Fulcro developer trying to build real stuff.
@U0522TWDA I was thinking a lot about this biff vs Fulco (I don't know much about biff except a few lines on web site). I like that in Fulcro view is generated from client database. Without client database and elegant backed front-end communication I would not start a new app. In my opinion it is more question how to set up a team to work on the app, it would be nice to have some experienced developer on board or mentor/consultant near by. So with you as consultant or even Tony, Fulcro is very attractive option.
