Interesting that this is Clojure and it doesn't mention Hoplon/Javelin[0] as prior work. I've used Hoplon/UI[1] to implement a moderately complex web app ~6 years ago. The library is practically a prototype, pretty much dead by now. However, I found the ideas interesting.

I find the biggest benefit of using a fringe library like this is the ability to read and understand the whole implementation. It's really simple compared to something like React.

FYI, they recently resumed activity on Hoplon. Good to see!

Well, it’s mentioned in a sense that “Reactive UIs never became mainstream” :( Would be interesting to understand why
