Reagent is a minimalistic ClojureScript interface to React.js that lets you write efficient React components using plain ClojureScript functions and Hiccup-like markup instead of JSX. It provides reactive state management via Reagent atoms so components re-render automatically when their data changes.

Use cases

• build a single-page web app in ClojureScript
• write React components without JSX using Hiccup syntax
• create reactive UIs that re-render on data changes
• use React with alternative renderers beyond react-dom
• build a frontend for a Clojure full-stack application

When to choose

• you are a Clojure/ClojureScript developer building a web frontend
• you want React's ecosystem with idiomatic functional ClojureScript code
• you prefer data-oriented markup over JSX
• you want simple built-in reactive state management

When to avoid

• your team works primarily in JavaScript or TypeScript
• you need a framework with a large mainstream hiring pool
• you want JSX and the standard React tooling experience
• you are building a non-web platform without a React renderer
