These puzzles just disappear when you used immutable data. Problem solved. #ClojureScript

How long will #ClojureScript last? A few reasons in may stick around a while:

- great syntax

- good ideas, like immutable data and namespaces

- easy to use its host, so JS changes so it doesn't have to

- community culture of NOT BREAKING THINGS (just ask @stuarthalloway )

This is a good thing. In #Clojure and #ClojureScript, all spaces are equivalent to one space, and that includes commas. I am not a fan of Semantic Whitespace like Python.

Need some extra space displayed on a page? For Heaven's sake, use #CSS!

RT @chriscoyier
how much space is a space?

i like how html is like...

one space? one space
2 spaces? one space
50 spaces?! one space
100000 spaces??? one space, bruv

What a triumph of interface design and #ClojureScript! Not only a very, very cool UI creation, but a great way to explore some of the core library and to get a a visual understanding of Reverse Polish Notation (RPN). First-class work!

Now have HTML5 local storage working in my #clojurescript app! I guess it is possible for the front-end to handle sessions, as long as they aren't anything confidential. Thanks to old mostly-finished things like https://github.com/alandipert/storage-atom. Transit had a couple loose ends, and now to figure out session timeout...

Question of the day: do you use any macros that have you write otherwise-invalid code in #ClojureScript? IE break the (function args) syntax?

Only one I can think is reagent, [function args]. But that barely counts.

Question of the day:

Do you still use semicolons in JavaScript?

Someone recently suggested that beginners spend a year "grinding every day" to master the language. Putting in the time is critical, but I don't think #Clojure #ClojureScript are ever a grind. They are too fun for that!

Good tip. And before jumping in to #Clojurescript, complete at least 5 more in #Javascript.

This is the curse and the blessing of the #clojure philosophy -- know a little of your hosts first, but then reap the benefits

Are you an aspiring front-end developer?

This tip is for you!

Before Jumping into Javascript, try to complete at least 5 Projects using plain HTML and CSS.

or we use immutable data and never have the question, "wait... did this get emptied?"

Interesting how the concept itself goes away.

JavaScript tip💡

You can use the syntax "array.length = 0" to empty an array

Here is how it works

The #webdev community is largely single-line promotionals (mostly about the glories of #javascript) and threads of handy gee-whiz info. So, in proper #Clojure fashion, I've decided to use that community as Host and do all those same things, but #ClojureScript. Join us in the fun!

The Twitter Webdev community is largely preoccupied with single-line promotional texts (largely about the glories of #javascript) and threads of gee-whiz info that I actually find quite useful sometimes.

I thought that, too. So I implemented a user app in raw html and css. I learned 3 things --

1. #emacs is really good at this repetitive, basic stuff
2. even so, the boilerplate was too much!
3. It took MUCH longer than #ClojureScript.

It better last 20 years.

HTML, CSS and JavaScript are enough!

Frameworks come and go, but those 3 stay because they alone are what make web development!

I think I may need to start putting more time into learning the interop ecosystems: Maven, Apache on the #Clojure JVM, and React stuff, NPM on #ClojureScript. Then, soon, Python, too #clj-python. Probably an hour of reading each day.

I got an image previewing component working in #ClojureScript Reagent (that's with react.js, for the uninitiated). https://orys.us/ub
