Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Svelte frontend vs HTMX and hyperscript
I have to say that I am an extremist minimalist, so I use a nano-framework I developed for the frontend, with uhtml (https://github.com/WebReflection/uhtml) and some JavaScript libraries to help.

Xeito - A framework for building web applications
One of the main decisions I had to make early on was template handling, there are many approaches out there and of course, with React being the king, I first tried implementing a VirtualDOM complete with JSX support and whatnot... well that didn't really worked for what I was trying to achieve, so I moved into Tagged Template Literals (through µhtml) and tried to stick to standards as much as possible by building on top of the Custom Elements API.
- Anyone have multiple language syntax highlighting with treesitter working?

Ardi: Welcome to the Weightless Web
Challenge: With declarative rendering, oftentimes entire DOM trees are re-painted because of simple prop or state changes that could have been handled faster by imperative DOM manipulation. I wanted a framework that, like Lit, only updated content or attributes that had changed instead of re-painting entire DOM elements and trees. Solution: I chose µhtml for the default templating system because it accomplishes this goal and other advanced templating features in a tiny bundle size. To make rendering even faster and smoother, I throttled uhtml's rendering using requestAnimationFrame.

Ask HN: What happened to vanilla HTML/CSS/JS development?
> There are lighter-weight shadow dom frameworks out there (than Vue/React/Angular) so why would you want to write one yourself?
You can even avoid a shadow DOM entirely:

I don't miss React: a story about using the platform
My next goal would be to discard snabbdom (and virtualdom) and use custom elements. For that I'm evaluating a library like https://github.com/WebReflection/uhtml and all it's ecosystem of utility
-
Hooks Considered Harmful
A tiny dom lib like https://github.com/WebReflection/uhtml is more than enough for very complicated UI, with understanding how events work, will be able to implement very thin state management on top. With game programming styled manual render() call here and there as needed, pretty neat.
-
A Look at Compilation in JavaScript Frameworks
Svelte separates its code between create and update lifecycles. Solid takes that one step further hoisting the DOM creation into clone-able Template elements that create whole portions of the DOM in a single call, incidentally a runtime technique used by Tagged Template Literal libraries like @webreflection 's uhtml and Lit.

Show HN: I Built A
I do not see this happens with https://github.com/WebReflection/uhtml/blob/master/DOCUMENTA... family. They are around for quite awhile, and their philosophy is clear from start, do one thing well, small and no tooling.

A History of Clojure (2020) [pdf]
* Single-Page App: shadow-cljs for the build concerns (https://github.com/thheller/shadow-cljs), Reagent with Re-frame for complex/large app (https://reagent-project.github.io and https://github.com/day8/re-frame). Even if we now prefer using HTMX (https://htmx.org) and server-side rendering (Hiccup way of manipulating HTML is just amazing, https://github.com/weavejester/hiccup).

Is there an open source project focused on ClojureScript, React, Reagent?

Reflet introduces descriptions: a new kind of polymorphic query
Reflet is a set of tools for building Re-frame + React based web apps with graph and non-graph data models. This includes:

Were React Hooks a Mistake?
https://github.com/day8/re-frame
Notably the author of re-frame has been weary of hooks.
I think that’s for a good reason. The approach in re frame feels like the best way to manage state so far for a react based app. Everything that changes state flows through an event. State can only be observed through subscriptions. Side effects are isolated to their own type of event. Debugging and testing are so straight forward with these concepts.
Redux got close but it has two problems in my mind. Like hooks, it encapsulates for no good reason. Put the state in one thing that you can observe holistically before and after pure events. It also has too much boiler plate.

Clojure Turns 15 panel discussion video
The cljs stack I hear about a lot (and use) is ShadowCLJS with reagent (https://reagent-project.github.io/) and re-frame (https://day8.github.io/re-frame/). ShadowCLJS is more of a build tool, but is really well documented and easy to use. Reagent is basically react but a simpler API, and re-frame is a layer on top of that provides data subscriptions and event-handlers to manage app state. It's overkill for some apps but I find it's actually super easy to work with and not as much complexity as I thought.
For backend there is luminus (https://luminusweb.com/) or Kit (https://kit-clj.github.io/). They are basically project templates that wire together a ton of popular solutions for various things - database access, migrations, security, html templating, etc. Also includes frontend frameworks like re-frame if you want.

Reflet: building Re-frame + React based web apps with graph and non-graph data models
Reflet aims to be a natural progression on top of Re-frame to support complex, data driven requirements. In that sense, it is both easy to learn, but powerful. You could say it's sort of like Re-frame++ (or Fulcro for Re-frame). Its main design goals are:
-
Killing mutants to improve your tests
At my current client we're working on having a frontend architecture for writing SPAs in JavaScript similar to re-frame's one: an event-driven bus with effects and coeffects for state management[1] (commands) and subscriptions using reselect's selectors (queries).
-
Giving new life to existing Om legacy SPAs with re-om
Some of us had worked with effects and coeffects before while developing SPAs with re-frame and had experienced how good it is. After working with re-frame, when you come to horizon, you realize how a good architecture can make a dramatic difference in clarity, testability, understandability and easiness of change.

what componies uses Clojure, and what componies deceased the use of other languages after additions of Clojure, for example Dropbox decrease the use of python after addition of Go programming language, are there any similar story with Clojure?
https://youtu.be/geeK1-jjlhY (talk about an initial prototype with re-frame and the decision to do a rewrite in Clojure)

what web framework do you use?
I used duct for the backend and re-frame for the frontend. Luminus is a much beginner friendly framework through.
What are some alternatives?
reagent - A minimalistic ClojureScript interface to React.js
fulcro-rad-demo - A demo for Fulcro RAD using either SQL or Datomic databases.
Recoil - Recoil is an experimental state management library for React apps. It provides several capabilities that are difficult to achieve with React alone, while being compatible with the newest features of React.
Elm - Compiler for Elm, a functional language for reliable webapps.
lit - Lit is a simple library for building fast, lightweight web components.
reitit - A fast data-driven routing library for Clojure/Script
solid - A declarative, efficient, and flexible JavaScript library for building user interfaces.
django-extensions - This is a repository for collecting global custom management extensions for the Django Framework.
shadow-cljs - ClojureScript compilation made easy
biff - A Clojure web framework for solo developers.
