Hoplon
Hoplon is a set of tools and libraries for making web applications.
Hoplon provides a compiler for web application frontend development, and includes
the following libraries as dependencies to complete the stack:
- Javelin: a spreadsheet-like dataflow library for managing client
state. Hoplon tightly integrates with Javelin to reactively bind DOM
elements to the underlying Javelin cell graph. - Castra: a full-featured RPC library for Clojure and
ClojureScript, providing the serverside environment. (optional)
Quickstart
Install Boot and then generate a starter project with:
boot -d boot/new new -t hoplon -n hoplon-starter-project
Example
src/pages/index.cljs
:
(page "index.html")
(ns ^{:hoplon/page "index.html"} pages.index
(:require [hoplon.core :as h :refer [div ul li html head title body h1 span p button text]]
[javelin.core :as j :refer [cell cell=]]
[hoplon.jquery]))
(defn my-list [& items]
(div
:class "my-list"
(apply ul (map #(li (div :class "my-list-item" %)) items))))
(def clicks (cell 0))
(html
(head
(title "example page"))
(body
(h1 "Hello, Hoplon")
(my-list
(span "first thing")
(span "second thing"))
(p (text "You've clicked ~{clicks} times, so far."))
(button :click #(swap! clicks inc) "click me")))
Browser Support
Hoplon has been thoroughly tested on desktop and mobile devices against the
following browsers:
Note that the
object
element is not implemented for IE 8, and that older
browsers that predate HTML 5 elements such asAudio
andVideo
will not render
them. Additionally, boot development tasks such asboot-reload
and
boot-cljs-repl
, which inject scripts into the browser to function, do not
support IE 8 (which errors when output is written to the console without the
developer tools open). Testing against these browsers is best done with simple
or advanced optimizations turned on.
