That's part of the beauty of #clojure. Since the same language is on the backend in JVM and front in #Clojurescript, the hosted transpiling sidesteps any "not real programmer" vibes. Not to mention, #lisp. They might hate your parens, but they know you're a programmer.

It’s incredible how fast our industry went from “html isn’t real programming” to “rust programmer thinks publishing a website is too hard”

And then you learn immutable data, #clojurescript cond, no need for booleans, vectors and maps instead of arrays and objects, and if you don't get the magic back, at least it's even more fun now!

Before I knew web development, I thought the Internet was magic.

Then the magic fades once you realize that it's just arrays, objects, booleans, and IF/ELSE statements. 😅

Cheers for documentation well done! Check out #clojure #clojurescript #re-frame docs: https://day8.github.io/re-frame/FAQs/Inspecting-app-db/#short-answer

Some readable #Clojure and #Clojurescript codebases. Discussing readability requires an obligatory mention of @elementsofclj book too.

- This project tangles orgmode to #clojure for literate programming. https://github.com/thi-ng/geom/blob/feature/no-org/org/src/viz/core.org

- For a major used library, I knew I couldn't go wrong with Corfield, so check out HoneySQL https://github.com/seancorfield/honeysql/blob/develop/src/honey/sql.cljc

- Here is a new in-development #ClojureScript one with the Lambda Island stamp of approval, asd seems pretty readable to me:
https://github.com/lambdaisland/deja-fu/blob/main/src/lambdaisland/deja_fu.cljs

- And here is a small old "finished" one where I recently read the code to figure out how to do what the docs didn't mention:
https://github.com/alandipert/storage-atom/blob/master/src/alandipert/storage_atom.cljs

Just read a libraries code to figure out how to supplement its Transit readers, easy peasy, because the docs haven't been updated in years and didn't include that tidbit. Feels good! #Clojure #ClojureScript

in #clojurescript
(clojure.string/replace "Hello World Johnny" #" " "")

🚀 Problem Solving

Given a string input, you need to extract only non-whitespace characters and returns the string.

Example:

Input → "Hello World Johny"
Output → "HelloWorldJohny"

Can you write just a one-liner code for it?

Hint in JavaScript: You can use split, join etc.

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

JavaScript Quiz 🏆

Comment the output of this code?

let x = 5;
let y = new Number(5);

console.log( x == y);
console.log( x === y);

Also, let me know the reason for your answer below!

A: true and false
B: false and false
C: true and true

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.

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

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!
