@plexus awesome job on the consuming JS libs episode

one addition I would do in the part about consuming modules with :module-type is that :refer will work great then

Good point! Maybe you can leave a comment on the video?

definitely. I can even link to: https://github.com/mneise/circle-color/blob/master/src/circle_color/core.cljs#L3

@plexus do comments support Markdown?

or is it just plain text?

or rather, is there a way I can link to the above in a nice way?

To be honest comments are only text at the moment. I haven't gotten to making it markdown yet because then I have to sanitize to prevent xss...

Let me see how quickly I can set that up

Doesn’t seem like a very urgent addition anyway 🙂

I’ll just leave the link there no problem

@anmonteiro deploying markdown support as we speak 🙂

just had to add whitelist based filtering of tags and attributes: https://gist.github.com/plexus/3a91e7cb399d22f6dcabcb35dd1e4204

@plexus: The re-frame intro was very good, looking forward to the next ones!

@shaun-mahood thanks! I'll probably cover subscriptions and events more in depth in the next two episodes

Great - my conj talk on re-frame got accepted, so if you can make about 40 minutes of re-frame videos before it's due then I can just go up to the front and hit play! ;)

haha nice, sure I'll get on it straight away 😉

one thing I'm curious about, I've tried to keep a "show don't tell" style for this episode, simply demonstrating how to make things work, without diving too much into how that works under the hood

this is a big contrast from the re-frame docs, which start with reaction, and build up from there

you notice towards the end of the episode that it gets especially hand-wavy when talking about cofx and effect maps, I can imagine that part wasn't too enlightening for people not already familiar with re-frame

but for most of the video I had the feeling this approach worked well. I think this approach aligns well with how people learn, at first you need patterns that you can apply, once you need to get beyond those basic recipes you already have a better mental framework and motivation to study what lies beneath

but so I'm curious how people liked that... was it easy enough to follow? Or did you have the feeling I wasn't telling you the whole story?

I liked the style, but I have a pretty good idea of the material so I'm probably not a great test case. The general pacing and production quality was excellent, too!
