Electric Clojure is a full-stack Clojure/Script framework where client and server code compose in the same expression, with a compiler that infers the network boundary and generates coordinated reactive client and server programs. It treats UIs as streaming DAGs using differential dataflow, eliminating hand-written network plumbing.

Use cases

• build rich interactive web apps without writing API plumbing
• avoid request waterfalls and over/under fetching in full-stack apps
• write frontend and backend logic in the same function
• build realtime streaming UIs with reactive control flow
• let the compiler decide the client/server network cut
• replace observables and async types with language-level reactivity

When to choose

• your app has heavy interactivity and realtime streaming between client and server
• you want a unified Clojure/Script codebase with compiler-inferred network boundaries
• you're tired of hand-managing API endpoints, serialization, and data fetching

When to avoid

• you need a stable, production-proven framework with a permissive license
• your team doesn't use Clojure
• you're building a simple request/response website or CRUD app
• you rely on a large ecosystem of JavaScript libraries and tooling
