Thanks @darwin, that could be a blog post very interesting

@benzen: have you read through the re-frame Wiki? If not, I'd have a browse.

@mikethompson: I did, but it still wasn't clear to me why you'r using core async for this part

dispatched events have to be queued

And not performed synchronously

Use of core.async is there for that reason

https://github.com/Day8/re-frame/wiki/FAQ#3-why-cant-i-call-dispatch-sync-in-an-event-handler

That should give you a feel for why dispatch has to be async (queued for handling "later")

So, in summary: 1. You first have to understand why a dispatch has to be handled aysnc 2. Then realise that use of core.async is an implementation detail in the service of that need.

@mikethompson: thank you
