Are you using react/cljs without using any of the Clojurescript wrappers? For learning purposes do you think is better to start that way?


I'm using Om quite heavily and it was my first look at react, clojurescript and single page web apps (prior Clojure experience though). Its been a reasonably pleasant experience and I can see myself continuing to use them quite a lot. Learned a lot about React in the he process too.

I personally would stick with the wrappers as it makes for a more streamlined experience. I like Om though the others look a little simpler, so may be more suitable if you're looking to stay close to React.


I am using Sablono https://github.com/r0man/sablono a lot. It is a very thin wrapper around the basic react components. IMHO I would advise getting to know React before jumping into frameworks. It's a pretty simple model and incredibly powerful on its own. That being said I think Om is a wonderful framework. But its good to understand React outside of Om.
