Clojurians Log v2

I haven't read through the whole developers' guide (yet) but have watched the grokking fulcro series and tried to google answers: does initial data have support for denormalization, so that I could have recursive links to data (for example a Person would show that person's family, but only their names so it doesn't recurse on a component level)? Or not recursive, like an edit form on the side having the first item in the list populated already without duplicating the initial data. Perhaps I shouldn't try to use the :initial-state of a component for this, but modify the state atom itself at startup?

initial-state is denormalized data that is beeing normalised with the query from root. I recommend you watch the Fulcro 3 tutorial videos (https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVi9lDx-4C_T7jkihlQflyqGqU4xVtsfi) instead of “grokking fulcro” as “grokking fulcro” is more an explanation about the internal workings of fulcro rather then a tutorial.

I'd use merge or merge-component, for me it's easier to understand and work with than initial state and easier to switch to load! later

Gotta have more loads of laundry, still going through the second part of that video series 😉 Video is not a very good format for me, I like going in my own speed

I'll check merge, thanks

It's described in the minimalist fulcro tutorial
