Donut, a Sweet New Clojure Framework for Building Your Online Business

on YouTube ↗26m

" summary

Donut is a Clojure SPA framework aimed at indie hackers that wires into Ring, Reagent and re-frame and claims to stop wasting evenings on dependency and debug pain by providing a batteries‑included form system and routing. The demo shows a with-form macro that binds inputs to a global app-db path (buffer and ui-state keys), validation that appears on blur, a router that stores route data in app state, and a dev tool injected as a Donut bakery plugin that adds API routes and a frontend for inspecting the system.
