Usage

shadow-cljs

Create a new application project with shadow-cljs:

lein new reagent-frontend <name> +shadow-cljs

Development mode

To start the app in development mode run:

npx shadow-cljs watch app

Building for production

npx shadow-cljs release app

Figwheel

Create a new application project with Figwheel:

lein new reagent-frontend <name> +figwheel

Development mode

To start the Figwheel compiler, navigate to the project folder and run the following command in the terminal:

lein figwheel

Figwheel will automatically push cljs changes to the browser. Once Figwheel starts up, you should be able to open the public/index.html page in the browser and see the changes refresh live. Alternatively, you could run python -m SimpleHTTPServer in the public folder.

Building for production

lein clean
lein package

REPL

The project is setup to start nREPL on port 7002 once Figwheel starts. Once you connect to the nREPL, run (cljs) to switch to the ClojureScript REPL.

Contents

The template packages everything you need to create a production ready ClojureScript application following current best practices. The template uses the following features and libraries:

• Reagent - ClojureScript interface to Facebook's React

Contributing & Customizing

Take a look at the open issues, especially ones marked as help wanted. If you see one you'd like to address don't hesitate to start a discussion or submit a pull request.

If the template isn't doing quite what you're looking for, it's easy to create a local copy of your own following these simple steps:

git clone https://github.com/reagent-project/reagent-template.git
cd reagent-frontend-template
lein install

If you feel that your customizations are general enough to be useful for others then please consider making a pull request.
