JavaScript components and Storybook tests are in js/
, named Component.js
and
Component.stories.js
respectively. Run yarn storybook
for an interactive
environment showing the look and feel of your components; they will live-reload
when edited.
You can require your JS components in your ClojureScript views with
(def component-name
(r/adapt-react-class
(.-default (js/require "../js/ComponentName.js"))))
Note the path is just ../
, regardless of where in your ClojureScript directory
hierarchy you are working from.
Clojure, with its functional core and immutable data structures, is ideally suited to managing state in user applications. ClojureScript extends this reach anywhere JavaScript can go, and React Native puts a performant, well-supported, JS environment on mobile and desktop devices with a deep ecosystem of usable libraries.
When it comes to building ClojureScript apps on React Native, the majority of the benefit comes from lifting state out of the land of JavaScript and into a functional library like Reagent. Design of components can be left to JavaScript, functioning essentially as markup, with tools like Storybook providing quick feedback on layout. This template provides the dependencies and plumbing to connect these three main tools.
