Clojurians Log v2

Announcing https://github.com/ingesolvoll/glimt, a simple FSM wrapper around re-frame’s `:http-xhrio` effect with retries and error handling. State of request is tracked through a simple subscription instead of callback/dispatch. Code example:

(def fsm {:id          :customer-loader
          :http-xhrio  {:uri             "<http://example.com/customer/123>"
                        :method          :get
                        :response-format (ajax/json-response-format {:keywords? true})}
          :max-retries 5
          :path        [::customers 123]})

I’m excited to read about Skija, the new JVM bindings to Skia (at the heart of Chrome, Android, Flutter, etc.), written by @tonsky, funded by JetBrains. https://github.com/JetBrains/skija/ Tonsky writes about his desktop for the JVM vision here: https://tonsky.me/blog/skija/. (Which I’ll summarize by saying, “can we have Electron for the JVM, but better?“) JetBrains funded this, which I believe builds upon Skija: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/compose/ (“Fast reactive desktop UIs for Kotlin, based on Google’s https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose and brought to you by JetBrains”, forked from Android Compose.)

And one more JetBrains project: Skiko windowing manager — higher level than Sijja, but lower level than Compose for Desktop: https://github.com/JetBrains/skiko/ Scanning this to see how easy it would be to use with Clojure. :)

Exciting! I will await skijacl by @vlaaad ;)

if only they released it a couple of years earlier...
