Use ClojureScript to create powerful serverless Web applications that are responsive and engaging. This book presents Reactive recipes with Reagent, a ClojureScript reactive framework, to create interactive applications. 
Throughout the book, Reactive with ClojureScript  Recipes uses progressively more complex examples and introduces you to a set of powerful tools that target rapid web application development. In the last chapter, you'll use these concepts for an HTML5-based deployment to smart phones.
ClojureScript is your functional programming language for the web. ClojureScript looks like a LISP, and compiles to JavaScript, and thus runs nicely run in the browser. 
What You'll Learn

• Write simple static web apps with Boot
• Iintegrate ClojureScript and its libraries
• Animate content, play with sound and videos 
• Use Reagent, and be Reactive in the browser.
• Run your Application on a smart phones.

Who This Book Is For

Clojure developers who want to turn their functional skills to the web and JavaScript advanced developers who want reuse their web skills in a different language

Inhaltsverzeichnis

Chapter 1: Using Boot, a build tool to create your working environment (50 pages)

Boot is a build tool, that makes it easy to write ClojureScript and to use external libraries.
It also makes code compilation, packaging and distribution consistent and easy. This chapter present the tool and how, with a simple text editor, the developer can write and execute code.

Chapter 2: The Basics of ClojureScript in the web (50 pages)

Based on Chapter 1, we will write some ClojureScript examples that compiles to JavaScript and run in the browser.

We will also look at how write real time code etc..

Chapter 3: Integrating ClojureScript with JavaScript Libraries (50-80 pages)

Based on Chapter 2, the developer will be presented how to add JavaScript libraries (and also ClojureScript libraries)

Patterns of integration are the same for JavaScript libraries so we will present libraries easy to integrate all the way to more challenging ones like animations. tweening, and simple games …

Chapter 4: Using Reagent to write Reactive Web App (30-50 pages)

Knowing how to write ClojureScript and how to integrate with the eco system we can now present Reagent, the React Wrapper.

The developer will see how to use Reagent to create pages reacting to user interaction in real time.
Reagent put React concepts and power to the hands of many.

Chapter 5: Taking it to Smart Phones (30-50 pages)

This chapter is about deploying the examples presented up to now to Smart Phones and other devices, through HTML5 web app deployment and maybe using React Native.
