I'm basically saying this. At work we've started to move from Ember to React over a year and a half ago, directly because of the work David Nolen has done in the space. And now we have Redux wrapping an Immutable.js map, and are trying to piece together the rest of the stack that is om.next. It would be wayyyyyyy easier and better and less hacky to just write clojurescript. Getting people on board is sadly super difficult



Any write ups why your team moved from Ember to React? Seems like the recent tenets of Ember coincide with Reacts's componentized architecture and one-way data. Also if you were able to convince the team to go from Ember to React, appears as though the opportunity to switch to clojurescript was there (although react is the hotness right now so convincing was probably easier).


Question (from a newbie): Why didn't you stay with Ember, now that it has a similar engine as React yet comes with a CLI tool and strong community conventions that get rid of any build tool frustrations?


I'll assume the main keywords are "one and a half year ago". Me personally, I like the fact that React is a library wheras Ember is a framework. React doesn't dictate how you code your program, while Ember does.
