On iOS with React Native and Clojurescript

on YouTube ↗27m

" summary

An actual App Store featured iOS app is built with Clojurescript on top of React Native and ships native scrolling and transitions with no web views. The prototype reaches a first usable version in one month when React Native is one month old, remains surprisingly stable with no hot fixes so far, and uses Reagent, boot-react-native and a custom Lookbook precompiled-styling while bridging the Facebook SDK. Pain points: brittle early tooling, biweekly breaking React Native upgrades, imperative navigator and inline styles, and Android responsiveness still unsolved.
