Local State, Global Concerns

Combining Clojure’s functional primitives and React’s programming model yields a uniquely powerful approach to user interfaces. Previously complex features, such as efficient undo, become trivially simple to implement. The simple versions turn out to be even more powerful. You don’t just get efficient undo, you also gain the ability to serialize the entire state of your application to inspect, debug, or reload! While the promise of snapshotting app state has been part of Om’s story from the beginning, we’ve been working hard to take the concept the rest of the way from idea to reality.
